Experience
A first-hand experience at the museum creates a very powerful effect; seeing the heavy material uniforms, the aged pins still tagged to the coats, gas masks, MRE’s, badges, pistols, and metallic combat helmets. The tangibility of these war-time necessities is sure to be a lesson in understanding and history.
