The
Bremer's had given us a weekend at the Dragon Hill (Army Resort) for a thank you for watching their sweet children while they had baby number 3! What a WONDERFUL weekend! We did some fun shopping and went to this museum. So many people had said what a great museum it was but how fun could a WAR museum be? It was SO interesting and very neat!
There was a HUGE static display as you walked onto the museum grounds. This F5 looks just like a T-38 BUT gray with a gun and bombs! Marc explained to me that it is the T-38 and that we use to fly it (the F5 that is) but the Koreans still do. We are still waiting to hear about our next assignment but MAYBE Marc will be flying this next...again. The T-38 that is! SO confusing huh?
Gotta take a picture of the tanks for Grandad!
APC's...Armor Personal Carriers...FUN to climb in and on anyway!
I knew she was just going to keep climbing until she got up on top! MONKEY!
NO FEAR...Marc get her please! :)
Had to get a picture of the
helicopters for Uncle Lloyd!
Inside the museum was ALL military/war history. Going back 5000 years! Amazing...being that our great nation is only 200 years old.
Korean
military uniforms from the 1600-1800s. SO different from ours.
US uniforms from the same e
ra.
This "teardrop" is made of
dog tags of the fallen United Nations
soldiers who
fought and lost their lives in the Korean War. The iron thorns wrapped around it symbolizes the horror, suppression, and danger of war. I just thought it was neat. I just realized within the last couple of years how much I really do enjoy history. I'm very glad we took the time to see this museum! Thank you again Bremer's for our weekend!
