LA ROAD TRIP | General George S. Patton Memorial Museum
SOLDIER ON | The General George S. Patton Memorial Museum was established to honor the late general and the thousands of men who served with him at the Desert Training Center and overseas. The museum is located in California off Interstate 10, about 30 miles east of Indio at Chiriaco Summit, which was the entrance to Camp Young, command post for the DTC during World War II. The site was donated by Joseph Chiriaco, one of the first area residents General Patton met when he arrived to set up the center.

Exhibits display memorabilia from the life and career of General Patton. The exhibit halls include the many and varied aspects of military life with particular focus on the Desert Training Center and soldiers of World War II.
