World War II Museum -New Orleans
Finally got a chance to visit the World War II museum in New Orleans. Did not disappoint. Spent over five hours there and easily could have spent days.
The oral history material is pretty incredible. The exhibits are amazing. The volunteers are great to chat with.
They did a wonderful job trying to pack a lot into a museum. But some things I personally would like to see more of:
-an exhibit on code breaking and traffic analysis (Station Hypo, on the roof gang)
-i dont recall seeing much of Tom Lea's work
-maybe something on WWII in popular culture (movies, television especially)
-on going historical debates or debates of the time would be good too (e.g. Nagumo's dilemma, Kurita and his withdrawal, MacArthur and the Philippines)
For those who have visited, anything you would like to see more of?
(Again not a criticism. I really loved visiting it)
