Today was ware traveling to our next spot. As you know SD is know for its highway signs. We were pulled off the road by the air & space museum sign in Box Elder, SD. As we pulled into the parking lot we saw everything from a B-52 to and Minuteman II rocket.
We had stop at the National Site for the Cold War right outside of Badlands National park, after talking with the ranger we drove over to the missile silo where the minuteman II is still in the ground (disarmed of course). It was to put it lightly, overwhelming to stand next to one at the museum.
Inside they were honoring 60 year veterans for the Korean War. Maybe 6 -8 tables were set us with books, articles, and information about the Veterans. I met one an named Marvin. He showed us around and thing he thought were especially important.
It was an honor to meet them and be part of the day.
