This unique site offers a one-of-a-kind view of the past and present Presidential yachts. Includes comprehensive ship specs, photographs, stories of Presidential journeys, and the history of these patriotic ships. Close attention is also paid to Air Force One, and Marine One, the Presidential Helicopter.
- Air Force One
This site by Boeing (the maker of Air Force One) provides photos, a short history of Presidential aviation, as well as a fact sheet of the 747-200B. This one-of-a-kind plane has an oval office, 4 bedrooms, conference rooms, 2 kitchens, and even a portable medical facility.
- Presidential Service Association
The Presidential Service Association is a non-profit organization created to provide a "network, to construct a history of service, demonstrate the traditions and pride of that service, and furnish scholarships, grants, or crisis funds for U.S. Armed Services Personnel/Veterans who served in the White House prior to or, after the creation of the White House Service Administration." A small but worthy site that delves into all the work it takes to care for the President.
- Ground Zero — The Atomic Tourist
Check It Out! The Eisenhower Administration commissioned the TOP SECRET building of enormous underground bunker called "Project Greek Island" in 1957. The bunker was located in rural West Virginia under the Greenbrier Hotel (that's right, under the hotel!). The bunker could house the entire United States Congress for years in the event of nuclear war. It housed sleeping quarters for all senators and their families, had an underground lake, oxygen generators, and tons of frozen food. The bunker was put on RED ALERT during the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. The bunker remained a secret until 1992, when the Washington Post released an exclusive story. You can now take guided tours of the bunker; one of America's most closely guarded secrets.
Interview with Paul Fritz Bugas Former On-site Superintendent of the Greenbrier Bunker.
- Tour of Camp David
Where would Johnson discuss Vietnam over a bowling game? Where would Eisenhower play golf with Khrushchev? Where would Ford zip around on his snowmobile? Camp David of course! This presidential retreat located in Maryland serves as the President's home away from home. Camp David includes a golf course, pool, horse trail, and even a heliport. The Camp David tour allows you to witness some of the more personal moments in the Presidents' lives.
- United States Secret Service
Since 1865, the United States Secret Service has been dodging bullets, running alongside limos, and helping to protect the world's most important leaders. The Secret Service also specializes in identifying counterfeit tender in the nation's money supply.
