Picatinny Arsenal
Situated on a 6,500-acre military installation located in the northwest corner of New Jersey, Picatinny plays a unique role in the United States' ability to wage war. There is no other comprehensive armaments facility like it in the country; it is a one-of-a-kind facility that provides virtually all of the lethal mechanisms used in Army weapon systems and those of the other military services. Picatinny indeed is a joint service armament research and development center.
Clovis, NM
The eastern New Mexico region was home to the Clovis culture, a significant early anthropological group of Native Americans. Historical remains were found at the Blackwater Draw site, which remains a historical and tourist site to today. The town was named after Clovis, the first Christian king of the Franks, according to some reports because the settlement's railroad station master's daughter was studying French at the time of the town's naming and proposed the appellation.
