If you're familiar with the history of the Civil War, you know that as the Confederacy in Richmond…read morefell, the President of the CSA escaped with the intention of reuniting with the Confederate Army and continuing the fight. Jefferson Davis and his party were on the run from Richmond, continuing through North Carolina and Georgia. Union forces caught up with him here in Fitzgerald on May 9, 1865 and he was arrested. There is a monument marking the exact spot on this 13 acre historic site which includes a short walking trail, a gift shop and a museum. It is an interesting site and worth an hour though it is a bit of a journey off the Interstate. I've been to a number of Confederate sites, seen endless memorials across the South (and the North), battlefields including Gettysburg, Antietam and Chickamauga, and even the Davis home in Biloxi. This is interesting if you are interested in the War Between the States. [Review 1051 of 2024 - 719 in Georgia - 22079 overall]

One of the things I…read morelike about road trips is seeking out these little places, either historic, a natural wonder, or something simply unique. It is a twenty minute drive off the highway and offers a small museum and a nature walk. Just walking the grounds is peaceful, with the sounds of nature surrounding me and the sun lazily falling upon me. If you have the time in your travels, seek these spots out. You will be better for the experience.

There is a lot to see. The first entrance has 3 floors to visit and there is 2 more hangars to go and see all the old planes and on top of that there were multiple planes across the property where we can drive by and visit everything. I would recommend to visit this place where you have a full day. On a Sunday it's open only from noon to the 5pm. Over all it's a great experience and there are friendly veterans who could help you where you want to go and any questions that want answers for it. Will come back again for sure with bigger group.

The Martin-Marietta Titan I was the first multi-stage intercontinental Ballistic missile produced for the United States Air Force. Using a liquid oxygen and jet fuel propellant, it was the nuclear deterrent from 1959 to 1962 until it was replaced by the Titan II missile that lasted until 1987. Independent from launch through controlled flight until the ballistic release of the warhead, the warhead would then descend to its target by simple gravity and air resistance. You're not going to find too many of these babies still standing. I assume it's disarmed but you never know. [Review 14052 overall, 1374 of 2020, number 343 in Georgia.]
