Description
- The U.S. Army Transportation Museum
- Where you'll find a truck that walks and a
ship that files.
And that's not all.
- EXPLORE - The world of motion, from mighty steam locomotives of days past to the world's only captive "flying saucer." See the first helicopter to land at the South Pole, a vertical take-off and landing aircraft, and the Army's largest helicopter-the "Flying Crane." Also see the "Caribou," famed aircraft of the Golden Knights, the Army Parachute Team.
- EXPERIENCE - The history of the Army's Transportation Corps as it unfolds on film. Listen to a rising chorus of roaring engines and whirling blades that has led to many innovations in commercial transportation throughout the world. Feel the drama of moving soldiers and equipment in war and peace, from the "Red Ball Express" of World War 11, to the armored vehicles used in the jungles of Viet Nam, to the air-cushioned vehicles, cybernetic walking machines, and "flying jeeps" of today.
- EXAMINE - More than 200 years of Army transportation history, from miniature models and dioramas to life-size displays in the main building. Wander through the outdoor display park among the actual vehicles, aircraft, trains, and marine craft of yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
