New York State Military Museum, Saratoga Springs, NY

[Sharkmouth]

Aside from the rain-soaked M4A3 standing outside, lots to see and enjoy.

I especially found this rarely exhibited feature of the Willys Jeep headlight:

Dang Saúl...

You should have messaged me...I could have given you the grand tour around town. That's just a 15 minute drive from the farm. Great museum and where I found a local Tuskegee Airmen I interviewed and built his Mustang for.

Hey,

It was a spur of the moment thing while I visited my son. We will be returning as we saw a lot to do but the weather wasn't cooperating!

Thanks!

Nice, any revolutionary exhibits?

They have tons of NY state history...from French and Indian and Revolutionary, through the Zouaves in the Civil War to modern. There is also a very neat visitor center at the Saratoga Battlefield 5 minutes from our farm.

Does your son go to school here Saúl?

Coming up. My son took photos.

Yes, the weather prevented our excursion so I'll take you up on the offer. He attends Siena University in Albany.

Gorgeous campus...we take the freshmen there for tours when the upperclassmen are taking their PSATs...

These are my son's photographs with the Garcian Cross (the family heraldic shield) which @jeaton01 graciously modified for transparency. Thanks John!

Jr @$AU£ you need to work on that flash buddy. Would love to read the info about that cannon.

I had a 03 GMC that had an under the hood light that had a retractable cord and magnetic base. You could unwind it and place it all the way back to the tailgate. Thinking about the headlight on that jeep.
