The Southeastern Armed Forces Museum Military Zone 7 is a military museum located at 247 Hoang Van Thu Street, Tan Binh District, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

History
The museum was established on 5 February 1988 on the site of the former U.S. 3rd Field Hospital and is diagonally opposite the former ARVN Joint General Staff compound, now the headquarters of 7th Military Region (Vietnam People's Army).

The buildings were originally built for the American Community School in Saigon in 1958/9, however when US dependents were ordered to leave South Vietnam in February 1965, the vacated buildings became available for use by the 3rd Field Hospital. The hospital was conveniently located near to Tan Son Nhut Air Base allowing for transfer of casualties within South Vietnam and the medical evacuation of casualties to other US hospital facilities in the Pacific.
