The US Army Finally Gets Its Own Museum
The United States Army has opened its own museum on Veterans Day. The National Museum of the United States Army, located in Fort Belvoir, Virginia, is approximately thirty kilometers from the nation’s capital, Washington, D.C. The museum pursues to share the story of the country’s oldest military service, which dates back to 1775. Interactive and historical displays are housed in the five-story complex. It contains a large number of recovered papers, photographs, artworks, and various types of army equipment. It also includes a World War II Sherman tank, a Vietnam War helicopter, an armored personnel carrier from the 2003 Iraq War, and a horseback riding saddle used by Army Special Forces in the mountains of Afghanistan in 2001. A life-size display during World War II exhibits American forces arriving on the coasts of Normandy, France on Codenamed Operation Neptune, or also referred to as the ‘D-Day’. There are also guns, safety gear, and service awards on display. It also features a recovered clock, frozen at the time of impact from the 9-11 attack at the Pentagon military headquarters.
