“Sigh.
Great place, been there a few times. The NPS is full of liberals. I hate to think of what will happen. If money gets short, and it will, they will preserve the “historic” homosexual sites before they close The Springfield Armory down.
Sigh.”
The fear is the next time....GOD FORBID....a Clinton or Obama type gets control they are liable to have the whole collection destroyed. Clinton had thousands of cases of M 14’s, BAR’s, etc new in cosmoline torched. The son of a bitch.
That is exactly it. They don’t view that historic material as historic, they view it as a negative reminder of western, white hegemony (as silly as that sounds) and unworthy of any treatment.
I don’t doubt the NPS will staff it directly with some people who see the site for the important historic area it is, but the upper echelons will definitely not see it that way.
I did not hear about the destruction of those weapons. Shameful and wasteful.
