Two of the 10 Museums in NE Indiana

We visited these two museums during our short stay in Indiana. There were vehicles of every kind used during the war, both US and German. Many famous vehicles like Patton, Rommell and Eisenhower's were on display.






I never knew the Germans came so close to our shores. The ship is a mock up of the USS Tennessee and was used in filming The Winds of War, a TV series.



This is a picture of Jacob Beser, only person to fly both missions on the Enola Gay when it dropped the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945 (before I was born).


The other museum had classic cars such as the Duesenberg and famous cars from films and TV.



Below are the A-Team van, the General Lee from Dukes of Hazard, the hearse that appeared in one of John Lennon's video, the Batmobile and Fonzie's motorcyle.
