I had the chance to visit the 3rd Infantry Division Museum on Fort Stewart, GA today. Definitely great exhibits all around, but my favorite thing to see is almost always captured war booty, with the highlight being these blinged out weapons from none other than Saddam Hussein's personal collection.

Close seconds were the home-brewed 50 caliber sniper rifle improvised by US Soldiers in Korea, and a Winchester M1 Carbine used by Audie Murphy.
