    One of the most complete and comprehensive looks at WWII shown and explained here covering both European and Pacific theaters. Be aware this museum doesn't pull any punches— you will see atrocities.

    Go there and explore EVERY exhibit in the building. It will take you back to D-Day as if you were there already. You'll be glad you're an American.

    Музей неплохой и реально интересный, говорят один из лучших в мире, но он скорее об истории войны глазами американца. В общем если есть альтернативные планы, его можно пропустить
