Nick's travels - US Museum of WW II (in New Orleans)
The US Museum of WWII was originally, the Museum of D-Day, because the landing craft were from New Orleans. However, the museum has been expanded, and looks like it will be expanded even further. I was kicked out at closing, and only managed to see 80% of the Museum, having to rush through the Pacific section.

So jealous. Love all that kit.
The Yanks and Euros have it so good when it comes to these kind of things!

One of my mates says the military museum at Pucka is great, but it's services only, what a shame.
Bit of a trek to Canberra.
