We visited a military museum in town. Outside there are all types of army vehicles.
One thing that was weird...the symbol of the 45th division started out as a swastika. Once Germany took that symbol so publicly they changed to a bird and used the name Thunderbirds. The original symbol was meant to signify the 4 states that were part of the division and was an Indian symbol used frequently in the area.

Amazing how time can completely change a meaning of something like this.
