Missiles for my Mantle

Today I got lost and found myself at an army chemical depot somewhere on the border of Washington and Oregon. I was looking for a place to fill the gas tank, but
I was discouraged by the missiles guarding the entrance.

The firepower wasn't as threatening as it could be. I think they were spray painted from the original grey color to a more patriotic red, white and blue. These were obviously relics of a war gone by spruced up to adorn the entrance. I think that's a good use for old weapons. I'd like some missiles for my own. Maybe I could get someone crafty to make them suitable for my mantle. Maybe some decopage (spelling?) or toll paint would be just the thing.

I think it's spelled decoupage .. and there's an accent mark in there somewhere (maybe).
