      Pretty sure it's part of the Air Force Academy.

      Edit: Maybe not, I was thinking of the chapel.

        Phrog, you're close.
        1. This place is still relatively new, so maybe not many have visited.
        2. It's so large, you can see it from the freeway.
        3. It's home to a very special flag.

                You do know there are more guns in the country than there are in the city.

                    If you guys haven't been, it's definitely worth the trip! The exhibits are amazing, especially noteworthy are Boot Camp exhibits complete with the bus arrival scene and the Korean War nighttime exhibit with the cold and the incoming tracers. You could also see how well you do on the M16 rifle qual course. Did I also mention that it has lots of guns?
