The Pritzker Military Foundation—established by philanthropist Jennifer N. Pritzker, a retired lieutenant colonel in the Illinois Army National Guard—has announced a $5 million gift to the Fort Campbell Historical Foundation (FCHF) in support of efforts to complete the Tennessee Wings of Liberty Museum.
To be distributed over five years, the gift will fund the design, fabrication, and installation of immersive and interactive technology throughout the museum, which is expected to open in 2026 at an estimated cost of $45 million. The 41,000-square-foot museum and 33-acre memorial park in Clarksville, Tennessee, will honor the legacy of the soldiers who have served—and continue to serve—in the United States Army 101st Airborne Division, 5th Special Forces Group, and the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, all stationed at nearby Fort Campbell in Kentucky.
“This grant will allow us to upgrade and enhance the exhibits and displays that will fill the museum exhibit hall,” said FCHF president Brian Winski, a retired U.S. Army major general and former commander of the 101st Airborne Division. “We will also be able to leverage tech and interactivity to really bring the history of these great units to life and truly inspire everyone who visits.”…
