Creator's Key Takeaways

Should be a rather somber day, but I think that it's important that we know our history so that we don't repeat it.

It was a somber experience, and I recommend that everyone should tour this museum.

It is a reminder that there really is no glory in war, only heartache.

I was very impressed by this older gentleman who gave it his all to visit this site.
