Camp Gordon Johnston Museum

Camp Gordon Johnston Museum, Military history museum in Carrabelle, United States.

Camp Gordon Johnston Museum is a military museum in Carrabelle that focuses on the training center that prepared soldiers for amphibious operations during the war. The building displays photographs, equipment, and artifacts that show how soldiers trained and what daily life was like at this facility.

The museum tells the story of Camp Gordon Johnston, where a quarter of a million soldiers trained in amphibious operations at Carrabelle before deploying overseas. The museum was first housed in the Carrabelle Municipal Complex, the former Carrabelle School and city hall, before moving to its site at 1873 Highway 98 West, across from Carrabelle Beach.

The museum is owned by the Camp Gordon Johnston Association, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and its president is Randy Usher. It previously occupied the Carrabelle Municipal Complex, which had served as city hall and was formerly the Carrabelle School. The collection centres on the quarter of a million soldiers trained in amphibious operations at Carrabelle.

The museum sits at 1873 Highway 98 West, outside Carrabelle's city limits and across the highway from Carrabelle Beach. It opens Tuesday through Saturday from 11:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. and is closed Sunday and Monday. Plan the visit around those days, since the beach opposite is where troops rehearsed landings.

The museum stands across Highway 98 from Carrabelle Beach, one of several beaches where troops rehearsed amphibious landings. Its collection runs to thousands of artifacts, among them uniforms, mess kits and war souvenirs the soldiers brought home. The museum is owned by the Camp Gordon Johnston Association, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose president is Randy Usher.
