In all seriousness the space museum is dope and if you want to check out the Holocaust museum you need tickets so check that out.2001400ex said:I'm flying there tomorrow.

US Mint (Bureau of Engraving and Printing) has a pretty cool little tour, and my kids loved the Newseum when they went for their 8th-grade trips. I've always liked the Navy Museum, but it's in a sketchy part of town (Green Line!).

If you're interested in a good read, try Lincoln's Sword, a book dedicated to deconstructing the craftsmanship he used in putting together speeches and proclamations. A far cry from the current Twitter shitshow, to be sure.YellowSnow said:
Lincoln was the single greatest resident of that dump of a house.BearsWiin said:
Me too. Like the Senate floor, it all just seems smaller in person.Swaye said:I've been in the White House. Nothing special.
As for something special, every so often I used to walk down from the GW campus (and later from my office at 18th and K) down to the Lincoln Memorial. The words carved in the marble inspired me. Still do. Special.

It wouldn't be much of a Union now though should the last real men not stepped up and beat back Japan and the Axis powers now would it? Of course the resident Antifa members probably wish that we didn't.YellowSnow said:

Depends on how you define accomplishment. In terms of what was more important, preserving the union >>>>> anything else. In terms of what was more difficult, WWII >>>>>>>> anything else.YellowSnow said:

The Norf were pretty massive favorites. One could argue taking four years to preserve said union was a pretty massive fuckup on the part of the union. -
Also disagree. 1860's warfare armies still had to walk and technology greatly favored defending forces. The Confederacy was roughly the size of Western Europe.dnc said:

The US was not an industrialized nation yet. So the country had to go from an army of 16,000 to mobilize an army of over 1,000,000. As an aside, most of the better generals happened to be from the South.
There was also a political aspect. The Norf couldn't just get its ass-kicker on, because it had to be mindful of the wavering loyalty of non-Confederate slave states like Kentucky, Missouri, Maryland, and Delaware. In particular Maryland, because its secession (which almost happened) would have cut DC off from the rest of the Norf.

We can all agree on the sacrifices made by the WWII generation but they pale in comparison with what the North had to do to compel the South to give up. The percentage of fighting age males killed in the Civil War was far greater than WWII and the only way for the North to prevail was to bleed the CSA to death, which meant sacrificing a shit ton of boys in Blue.
In WWII we were Yuge favorites over Japan and the Soviets killed about 9 out of 10 German soldiers. -

I mean WW2 was more impressive as we weren't ready to fight at all when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor. We basically had to unite as a nation, train an enormous ground, sea, and air fighting force along with building all of the equipment they needed to fight the mechanized war required in Germany and the naval war with Japan. We did all of this in a very short time, then set off to fight a two front war across separate oceans. Then you throw in the upgrades in weaponry we made in those years along with making atomic matter a weapon.
Sure, Japan is the size of California and the Germans were fucked once winter hit and Stalingrad held. People forget we had to beat Finland to win the gold medal.
An interesting adage, Finland supported the Nazi's and actually used the swastika during WW2. Of course this didn't end well as Sweden wasn't a Nazi sympathizer and they border with Russia. When we went there last year to fly with their air force in Kuopio we were the first Ally power to do anything with them since before WW2. They still hate Russia, Russia hates them, we hate Russia. It all worked out. -
True, but attributable to the era. Whether or not a soldier died in action or of infection from a lead ball months or weeks later didn't matter much; it was still cannon fodder that had to be expended to get the W.salemcoog said:
