Advantages: Stops Wars, original start to Sace race, Moving Experience

Disadvantages: None

We all have told are Children that war is wrong and there is no winners in war, well at lease I have.
Take them to the Imperial War Museum and they will start to believe you.
It has "The Trench Experience" which shows you what it was like in a WW1 trench, with the smell,noise, sounds and sites. This is backed up by an exhibition of weapons and tool used in the trenches.
The main hall displays original spitfires, V1 & V2 rockets { this was the real start of the space race }also a mk1 tank.
The Museum ties all the War & weaponary into the daily life of the times and gives a true feeling of having been there. They also have "The Blitz Experience" which lets you see and sit in an Air raid shelter in the East End of London while a raid is on and be amazed when you come out of the shelter.
This Museum is well worth the time to go to. A must for any Teenagers covering this period in history. It does not glorify war but let the young people see what it was like. Be prepared to be moved by some of the stories of human endeavour.

It's a great museum - that WW1 trench really stinks! All school kids should visit here.
