George C. Marshall Foundation

The Foundation is located on the Post of the Virginia Military Institute, in a building containing a library, archive, and administrative offices.

Members of the original board of directors included Robert A. Lovett, Dr. Forrest C. Pogue and General Frank McCarthy.

[1] The Marshall Museum displayed exhibits of Marshall's life and work in the entry hall and two adjacent galleries, one focused on his military career and the other on his achievements following World War II.

A small collection of artifacts was kept by the Foundation, with the rest sent for permanent display at other museums.

Along with sorted paper collections, the library contains more than 23,000 manuscripts, two million documents including many from the National Archives and Records Administration, hundreds of maps, thousands of photographs, 700 posters from all countries involved in both World Wars, films, and over 250 oral histories.
