War museum

The war museum was an enjoyable experience for me. I was very intrigued by the array of different uniforms and equipment as well as tanks and trucks. I feel as though that as Americans, we are proud of our endeavors such as wars. Since the birth of this country we have been linked to war and a strong military. In many ways, our military is one of the proudest aspects of our nation. Both of the world wars have a long lasting positive outlook because of the result as well as what they represented to this country. As a country we were able to come together and win a war on both fronts. Almost as important as the war abroad was the positive financial ramifications that came forth. The result of the war came a young world super power to the likes that had never been seen before. That being said, as Americans we have always been proud of the efforts in WWII regardless of the terrible things that happened. We are able to enjoy a simple trip to a museum of war. Because the trauma of a war won is tolerable and understood much better than that of Vietnam. The trauma associated with killing and death that took place during war is now nationally accepted as necessary. Museums such as this are ways for young Americans like myself to pay tribute through education and an attempt to understand what a previous generation of Americans went through.
