Apache Helicopter Fiield Trip

Being a military family has SO many benefits.  Top that off with being a homeschooling family, and the benefits almost double!  Today we were able to go check out the Apache helicopters, and even got to "fly" one in the simulator!
 
Checking out the night vision goggles 
One of the soldiers said that this is the most expensive "hat" any of the kids would wear.  It's a brand new $20,000 flight helmet.

All Tristan wanted to know how to do was shoot the missles.

I'm pretty sure Tristan thought this was the best field trip ever.
