The US Naval Academy is the epitome of the service academies (sorry West Point, CG and MA) The campus is steeped in history, the openness and availability to stroll its park-like environs, make it an amazing visit, something you need to incorporate if you're ever in the Annapolis area. Oh and the Midshipmen are the most polite, articulate focused yond men and women you'll ever have a chance to meet. Go Navy!

Lots of great experimental aircraft. Good history of NAS Pax River and construction of the base. Very knowledgable volunteer staff. New building makes it much better. All sorts of naval aviation history. A definite must visit when in the area.

Cool static exhibits (such as the two C-119 Flying Boxcars) and friendly staff. But the best part was the Museum’s sponsorship and hosting of the Commemorative Air Force’s (CAF’s) WWII B-17 bomber “Sentimental Journey”—riding in that baby was the experience of a lifetime!! Many thanks to the Museum and the CAF crews alike!
