Today we went to the Pentagon. it wasn’t as cool as I thought it would be… well from the outside it was. We had four speakers (Timothy Keating, Michael Linick, Thomas Hall, and Christopher Miller) and a tour. I guess the only impacting thing was the 9/11 memorial and standing right where the plane crashed into. Definitely very uncomfortable..
On the way to the pentagon we passed the Iwo Jima memorial, it’s one thing hearing the number of casualties but seeing individual crosses for each individual is really impacting. We passed the washington memorial and saw the white house from a distance (i though it was super cool.. i mean i had never seen it before).
I like the people, doesn’t matter what we are talking about either because it always has to do with politics. Every conversation one way or another always goes back to politics
there are some reallly really intelligent people too, its intimidating but they are nice about debating.
Tomorrow is capitol hill with some free time! yayayay!!
