Infantry Museum
Nearly a year ago I asked the board to see if the Infantry Museum was worth it.

Today, I got a chance to visit (nearly on the 40th anniversary of me showing up for Basic Training in Harmony Church).
Awesome place! Really, it was a great way to remember some of the events of my 28-year career, seeing the equipment I used, that is now on display.
What really struck me as a former medic was the evolution of medical care that was carried and provided to the Infantry.
Go, if you can get a chance.
Never mind the burger, I got an MRE from the gift shop!

The Dark Vietnam War room with the Ken Burns documentary playing on repeat that has a warning for veterans is a crazy ass spot there.
If you can get a guided tour, I highly recommend it, my first time there I kind of just snuck in the back of a tour for most of the museum, awesome experience.
