[AGL] Military Collectibles

[Frances Morey]

Wow! Thanks for the treasure trove--a virtual tour of the stuff of the next federal museum to come on line. The art alone is worthy of such a museum--that the military paid artists to document the battlegrounds is amazing in and of itself. 
Imagine if today's wars got such treatment, as opposed to a total blackout of what's happening short of Edward Snowden and Bradley Manning's revelations. How could an artist capture that cynical deception?!?!
Thanks, Byron.
A hundred million, piece-a-cake. 
Best,
Frances
