A Great Museum - The Big Red One

[Fubar1]

I had visited this museum as a kid and enjoyed climbing on the tanks. Having recently visted there as an adult, this museum may be one the best in the world dedicated to a single division, The Big Red One. With elements going all the way back to the revolutionary war, the museum graphically depicts World War I, WWII, Vietnam and even Operation Desert Storm.
Included are mock-ups of a Word War I trench, entering a D-Day landing craft while you watch an eight minute film on the actual D-day, and a small tank park.

For those of you that will never get to Illinois, the excellent website may be the next best thing.
