II. GENERAL

A. The United States Army, Center of Military History (CMH) Museums Division (MD) has a requirement for the following:

1.0 Background

The mission of the Museum Division of the U.S. Army Center of Military History (CMH) is to collect, preserve, and interpret historical material culture or artifacts, as stipulated in Federal Statute and Army Regulation (Army Regulation 870-20 Army Museums, Historical Artifacts, and Art [11 Jan 1999], Para 1-5a), which in part states: "The Army Historical Collection is part of the National Collection of the United States of America. The preservation for public use of historical objects of national significance for the inspiration and benefit of the people of the United States is governed by sections 431 through 433, and 470, title 16, United States Code (16 USC, 431-433, and 470), as amended". Section 1, 16 USC 461, further declares "that it is a national policy to preserve for public use...objects of national significance for the inspiration and benefit of the people of the United States". Section 1, 16 USC 470, states: "The historical and cultural foundations of the Nation should be preserved as a living part of our community life and development in order to give a sense of orientation to the American people....the preservation of this irreplaceable heritage is in the public interest so that its vital legacy of cultural, educational, aesthetic, inspirational, economic, and energy benefits will be maintained and enriched for future generations of Americans". Section 110 notes that "The heads of all Federal agencies shall assume responsibility for the preservation of historic properties which are owned or controlled by such agency". Finally, Section 301 of 470 defines "historic property" or historic resource" to mean "any...historic...object included in, or eligible for inclusion on the National Register, including artifacts, records, and material remains related to such a property or resource". Preservation of objects is then defined as “identification, evaluation, recordation, documentation, curation, acquisition, protection, management, rehabilitation, conservation, and education and training".

2.0 Scope

The Collections Branch, Museum Division, is responsible for the identification and acquisition of material culture of U.S. Army and national significance. The collection in 3.0 below is available for purchase in support of the continuing requirement to acquire items for preservation, identification, evaluation, recordation, documentation, curation, acquisition, protection, management, rehabilitation, conservation, and education and training.
