American History Museum continued

Well, I caught up with the guys. We are walking through the wars.  A few things that caught my eye were:

General Sheridan horse - Winchester
Poo
This is a transmitter or sensor that was used during the war to detect troops walking on trails. They were dropped from planes and disguised as "poop".  I imagine you wouldn't want to step on it. Therefore, keeping the hidden equipment from destruction. LOL

The men were facinated with the wars. I am not the true history buff in this area. I did see the twisted metal posts of the 17th floor of the World Trade Building and it was sobering and sad.
9/11 Tragedy


Damaged 17th story metal beams

Bless our troops and bless you. Good night....I am on my way to the Freer Art Gallery next

  1. The poo is so funny. I don't think that's the first time poo was used as a disguise. Watch where you step! :-D
