The museum led my son to to USMC
Five years as an 0311, combat veteran, North Africa. Used the GI Bill to get his degree and is in his second career serving his country.
We all went to the museum when he was 16. I was ready to enlist with him after going through the entire museum. It's that cool

I'm kicking myself for not visiting it when I had a guy in the brig there.
