"The Volkswagen Kübelwagen (short for Kübelsitzwagen, meaning "bucket-seat car") was a military vehicle designed by Ferdinand Porsche and built by Volkswagen during World War II for use by the German military (both Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS). Based heavily on the Volkswagen Beetle, it was prototyped as the Type 62, but eventually became known internally as the Type 82."

Massachusetts Military Archive and Museum in Worcester, Massachusetts is a beutiful gothic style building that resembles an old fort. The building was constructed as an armory in 1891. Presently, it serves to house Archival holdings that include military records of Massachusetts soldiers, sailors, marines, militiamen, and national guardsmen from 1775 - 1940 as well as displays depicting the history of the Massachusetts National Guard beginning with its organization in 1636 as the colonial militia.
