"It was very fun I was a nice place to go for a family outing"
"The Government and US Military are to be commended for their openness to allowing civilians on this active site, one deeply vital to our history. It’s a gorgeous location packed with so many historical buildings. A car is needed as the place is massive. You will need your ID to check in at the Visitor Center to pass a brief screening procedure. They are fast and friendly. If you do the museum as well, give yourself 2-3 hours for the place which is only accessible from the Moline, Illinois side."
"Wonderful, patriotic Memorial Day service."
"I enjoyed working as cost and systems accountant at Rock Island Arsenal (U.S. Army) 1979. I lived in Moline, Illinois near the arsenal. The arsenal is a great place to work. Great people."
