Rachel was especially excited about The National WWII Museum, but we all ended up really being impressed by it!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It was educational and interactive<\/strong> We were each given a name of someone who actually served in the war. Throughout the museum there were stations where you could scan your card to gain more information about the individual. It was very impactful:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
