When I was stationed in Pearl Harbor from 1979 till 1983, I was staying at the barracks of building 55, which during the attack by the Japanese on December 7, 1941, was actually the headquarters of the 3th Fleet at the time, but then they built new headquarters in the 1970's and so we enlisted men were given the space for barracks. I remember seeing on the roof where they had patched up the bullet rounds the Japanese had left as they had strafed the building then. At the time, the USS Arizona memorial was a five-ten minute walk from it and the USS Missouri was in the Bremerton, Washington Naval Shipyard. On this photo The USS Arizona signifies the start of the World War 2 for the USA, and the USS Missouri is where the Japanese signed the surrender to the Allies.

Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland, which gave Francis Scott Key the basis of what later became the U.S. national anthem, "The Star-Spangled banner" after a USA victory over the British at the Baltimore battle in 1814. It was built in 1798 and used by the US Army until World War 2 and afterwards became a National Monument.

That's one classy, cool looking train station.

Originally known as the Union Plaza, it was built in downtown Las Vegas where the train station used to be. Las Vegas started as a train station between Los Angeles and Salt Lake City in 1905 and years later they built a small hotel for passengers, but they got rid of the train stop back in 1993 and moved it out of town as the Union Plaza got much bigger and there simply were not enough train passengers to make it worthwhile. It has gotten much bigger, and it is now known as The Plaza hotel and casino.
