IF YOU LIKE MUSEUMS..........

Fredericksburg, Texas is the home of Admiral Nimitz.  I can hear now the many young adults asking, "Who is Admiral Nimitz"?  During World War Two, while General MacArthur was commander of all Army forces in the Pacific, Admiral Nimitz was the head man over all Naval Forces in the Pacific.

When the Museum was started the proposed name was "The Nimitz Museum."  The Admiral put the end to that when he said it must be called "The Museum of The Pacific War." in honor of those who fought and died in that war.  And so it is today.

Covering six acres the complex includes the museum, the Japanese Peace Garden, the  Pacific Combat Zone, George H.W. Bush Gallery and more.  This is an opportunity to spend a couple of days in Texas quiet.  That is just what I intend to do very soon!.......Medicineman!
