I realize that this might be an unusual object to choose to share, but these glasses managed to make me think more than many of the other artifacts I came across.
My reasoning behind this is that somebody had to see through these glasses. Somebody had to look through these specific lenses to experience the war. They viewed the war in a slightly green tint, watching either the horrors that went down, or taking in an ignortantly perfect world, unaware of what was really happening. The inside of the arms is engraved with the name "Willson," which implies a specific person owned, wore, and took good care of these glasses.
