You know the phrase "turn the desert into green glass"?
They have some of the green glass. It's the real deal. It's right at the end of the Pacific Pavillion and it's not really presented with much fanfare. It's just another small artifact displayed just like the thousands of other small artifacts that you'll have seen by that point.
EDIT:
Be sure to see the "Beyond all Boundaries" movie, too. Another thing that always strikes me when I go are the uniforms they have on display. They're tiny.
Oh yeah, there are also a (dwindling) number of WWII vets that volunteer and work with the museum as general ambassadors. Spend a few minutes talking to them.
