Taking out well defended targets at long range often required that the military bring in the big guns-and the artillerymen who fired them. Come to this FREE Outpost program to learn about three pieces of light artillery that helped propel the United States to victory in the Pacific: the M2 Mortar, the M3 Anti-Tank Gun, and the 75mm Pack Howitzer. This program offers an up-close-and-personal opportunity for you to look at these decades-old weapons and even see a live demonstration of them firing blank rounds! After, you can interact with and even handle some of these real artifacts from the Pacific War! Programs are offered at 11:30, 12:00, 1:30, 2:00, and 2:30 at the Pacific Combat Zone. The Outposts are free and open to the public, there is no need for a ticket!
