Our final stop during the daylight hours was at the Vietnamese Military Museum. Most of the displays dealt with the war against the United States, and some of the exhibits were captured American vehicles and aircraft. The focal point of the museum was a large pile of assorted scrap metal from the war that was shaped into a tower about thirty feet in height. There was also an observation tower on the grounds, but my legs were hurting too much to make that effort.
