One day, my roommate An啪e told me that we were going to see Napoleon鈥檚 tomb. At first, I wasn鈥檛 impressed because I don鈥檛 pay much attention to wars that happened before 1900 they don鈥檛 seem very relevant to modern times. Let me explain something you know that feeling when you鈥檙e going somewhere but you really don鈥檛 want to be there? That was me the whole way, until we arrived and I saw a tank. That鈥檚 when I knew we were in the right place. After that, everything just snowballed, and I started geeking out over guns. I don鈥檛 know how An啪e handled my excitement, since he was geeking out over planes and boats, but I guess we鈥檙e even in a way. If you ask me, my favorite gun is the tomigun. It鈥檚 like a rifle that Italian mafias used after the war. I love it because it鈥檚 a predecessor to modern submachine guns, and I think it鈥檚 cool how predecessors of technology are often some kind of evolutionary leap. One thing I like about war is that it pushes the human mind to a completely different level of thinking. And if you ask me, that kind of thinking should happen even without war but it can鈥檛, because war pushes your brain in a way nothing else can, literally, since you鈥檙e fighting for your life. Back to the museum some of the exhibits were projections of battle plans, which surprised me. I never thought they could show that in a museum; I assumed it was classified. I also loved that there were life-size missiles, anti-tank bombs, and not just anti-tank bombs life-size anti-boat bombs too. It was kind of crazy.
Overall, I鈥檇 give the museum 9 out of 10. The only thing I鈥檇 add is that people could try handling some guns, like we can at the Pivka Museum in Slovenia.
