Our Trip To West Point by Caleb



My Dad and I went with the Boys Brigade from church to visit West Point.  Jayden, my friend, and his grandpa picked us up and then we drove to West Point.  West Point is an Army College.  The first thing we did was went to the museum.  Guess what they have?  There was a three hundred year old sword, guns (boom, boom, boom, boom, boom) and an Irish tank.  We then had dinner, went to chapel and then went to a hockey game.  I loved the hockey game!  After the game we had a long drive home.  I got to stay up until after midnight.  It was a great day.  I hope my Dad and I can go again soon.  Maybe if my Papa comes to visit, we will take him there too.

One of the displays you could touch--replicas of Revolutionary War guns.

An actual U.S. Army Jeep.

One of the rooms in the museum that had Jeeps, tanks, bombs, and all kinds of weapons.
