Been there many times. Back in the day, it was a small building. Hav'nt been there in years. I do remember the dios tho. |

I used to do my reserve duty at building a block away from it. They renovated and expanded it a couple of years ago, especially the WWII and later exhibits. While still not huge, it's a real gem of a museum. Plus they have a WWI naval railroad gun on display across the street. |

I have been to the Navy Yard many times, it is one of my favorite places to take out-of-town visitors (of a certain type). Convenient to the Metro and very interesting. Tango – If you ever make it to Washington DC, you have an open ended offer for a grand tour of the sites. |

Visited with Marl Campbell of "Close Action" fame a few years back, and an excellent visit it was too. More successful than my earlier visit where I wasn't allowed in as I was an "alien" |

Used to work at the Navy Yard, but I don't remember these displays. Loved the gatling gun though. |
