There are more than 400 museums in the US that celebrate the history of the military. But not a single one devoted to American diplomacy. That’s about to change. A new museum celebrating the history of American diplomacy is being built at the US Department of State. The US Diplomacy Center (USDC) will feature 238 years of American diplomatic history, as well as an education area for students interested in diplomatic careers. The USDC has collected over 6,200 objects to display in the new, 20,000-square-foot museum.
    Building started on the museum in 2014. Secretary of State John Kerry, along with five former Secretaries of State, was present for the ceremony. Once all the funding and design plans are completed, the museum is projected to open in 2017, said a spokesman for the project.
