Geocaching!
October 6, 2009
Geocaching is an outdoor activity in which the participants use a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver or other navigational techniques to seek out containers called "geocaches" anywhere in the world. A typical cache is a small waterproof container (often an ammo box) containing a logbook to record your visit and a trinket to take with you as a souvenir. Geocaching is most often described as a "game of high-tech hide and seek," sharing many aspects with orienteering, treasure-hunting, and waymarking.
The AMC Museum is one of the initial Delaware sites in partnership with the Delaware Tourism Office. If you like playing with a GPS device and if you like a bit of an adventure, try it out. Click here for more information.

Addition to Eyewitness to History
September 30, 2009
Check out the latest addition to our Eyewitness to History page. We’ve added an excerpt from the diary of Bing Wood, the crew chief of the C-47 on display in the museum. It’s his personal account of the airdrop at Arnhem during WWII code named Operation Market Garden. It's thrilling stuff and is not some Hollywood concoction.
The movie, “A Bridge Too Far” tells the story of this operation.
