ReplyDeleteThe only way to save this unique treasure is to petition the Smithsonian to take possession and provide adequate funding that way.
This "fluster Cluck" that we have for a City Government, and the chaos that is apparently going to be the hallmark of the next one have no interest in supporting the Memorial, and their Owner/Masters, (the Kansas-based Real Estate Developers,) see it as a waste of land that could be providing TIF.
"Kansas' top military mind...." Not by a long shot. Pretty much any student at the Army Command and General Staff College would tower over him, as would command staff at Ft. Riley.
