    These uniforms are on display in the American History Museum in Washington, DC. These are both uniforms actually worn by the respective Generals, donated after retirement to the museum. I wish I could've gotten better photos, but there were loads of others wanting photos and I couldn't get the focus right for anything closer than you see here. Maybe next time! Cool
    Enjoy!

    It was pretty cool to have been so close to such pieces of history. Two of the greatest military minds of the modern age, so neat to have seen their personal effects on display.

    Powell & Schwarzkopf are both pretty big-sized gents too, I had seen photos, but seeing their uniforms in-person really put it into perspective! Laughing
