I can only imagine.

Reminds me of the Smithsonian treatment of the Enola Gay some years back, almost an apologia that they had to tone down because veterans were rightly furious over it.

LOL, my dad got in trouble via negative press back in 1995 when he gave a Memorial Day speech in my town and opined that if we had nuclear weapons sooner, we should have used more of them on the Japanese...

Since I live near DC I remember that well. I was so mad that I have yet to go over there and see that new section of the Air & Space Museum.
