    I thought the trick was to drop in a grenade first not poke in a gun

    All the displays shown are so life-like. Now, that German Shepherd is real, right????

    Oh my gosh, there's even a dog! And I'm afraid to ask what the poor Marine is doing inside the circle of sticks. This museum is so good because most of us have NO idea what these guys go through, so this gives us just a little bit of an idea. This looks much more real than even a wax museum.

    I wonder if his back is hurting from bending over so long! I mean, these are just incredibly realistic! Great fence and sign for your meme, too!

    This is a great museum. Every thing is so well presented. I like the shot of the fencing and soldier.

    My hubby would have loved to see this museum, as he really enjoys history. He always complains, as I read fast and keep moving, so I leave him in the dust...then I'm ready to go and he isn't. ;-)
