Large Weapons at the West Point Museum
« on: May 03, 2009, 07:42:11 AM »
Over 95% of the weapons in this video are black powder, but some others had to be included to cover the topic area for general audiences, so please ignore those, shut your eyes briefly and they will go away.   Hopefully the board monitors will agree with me that the large number of rare and interesting cannons in the video outweigh the few "bad" more modern items and won't pull it, but if they do, we understand, they're just doing their job.

I've been to W.P. twice.  Once with a friend - a retired CSM and had maybe 10-20 minutes there and once hitch-hiking through and didn't have a camera.   Maybe someday I'll have an afternoon to pause and reflect.
