Damaged historic relic at the Pentagon This was an ancient globe that had been kept for decades in the US military department building. A historical item believed to be related to General Dwight Eisenhower was dropped while being moved to Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth's office. According to the "Washington Post", the globes, which are about 76 centimeters in diameter, were created in the 1930s. It is believed that during World War II it was used by Dwight Eisenhower, the future US president who commanded the Allied forces in Europe during the war. Later, the globe eventually ended up in the Pentagon and became part of the department's historical heritage.
