Our Epic Northwestern Journey – Part 8 – Military Honors

Today’s post is a continuation of sorts from yesterday’s post, Our Epic Northwestern Journey – Part 7 – Doin’ Time in Boise. Today, I am featuring the Military Museum that was located on the Boise State Prison grounds. We visited the museum while we were waiting for our prison tour to start. We could have easily spent a lot more time in there too. Maybe next time. It was a very nice, realistic presentation. It honors the brave men and women of the United States military and armed forces through the years, particularly through the WWII years.

Had I been a young women during these times, I would have joined up to fight for my country then too.

This says it much better and much more eloquently than I ever could.

Thanks to ALL the men and women who have fought to preserve our freedoms, from the very beginning to now, and into the future. We owe everything to you. Thank you for all that you did and continue to do everyday.

My dad fought in WWII. He was a very young Australian man, 14, who lied about his age and said he was 16, so he could join the Australian Army to do his part to fight for our freedoms. I will always hold a special place in my heart for all of our brave men and women who fight to protect our freedoms and our way of life.

Have a great day and make everyday great. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.
