<p>When I read things like this as an historian it makes me a bit sad. These are tangible pieces of American Military history and they belong in a place where the public can enjoy them, and future generations can have <strong>VISIBLE,</strong> <strong>TANGIBLE</strong> ways to re-connect with the past. They belong in a<strong> MUSEUM</strong>, not a private collector&#8217;s basement.</p>
