Bryan, I'd like to run something by you and everyone at NAVED. If you have a few extra NAVED brochures, I would like to put them in the Museum, possibly near the vintage dive gear exhibits, or at least in the store/information section.
We are building an 8000 sq ft addition going up as I type, and we should move in around July. The existing area where the SEAL dive gear is exhibited is going to get a professional overhaul at the same time. We are also expanding the Museum store in the new area. I think some brochures in possibly one or two of these areas might be good PR and could create interest. I can't tell you how many people come in who are divers. The most popular area of the museum in the TRAINING section, where we show video of BUD/S SEAL training, particularly the DIVE training. People LOVE the dive gear, almost as much as the weapons....
On a funny note, when a patron of the Museum asks a volunteer anything about the vintage SEAL dive gear, guess who they call? MOI....
Good Lord....I have to LOL at that!
