edit to add:
so today we drove from NJ to DC, 3 hours each way roughly, to spend 3 minutes gazing at the original Hitler signed Nuremberg Laws. The laws that were the beginning of the end for the Jews of Germany and Central Europe. It is the first time they have been on free public display, and it will only be there for a few more days!!!
So, as crazy as it seems we went to the US national archives, skipped the main attractions of the Magna Carta, Constitution, Bill of Rights & Declaration of Independence....and proceeded directly to the Nuremberg papers....the only thing not relating directly to American History in the entire place. I guess as a historian on a mission to see something while available this can be understood, although...most people just think I am a bit crazy.
