My first trip is to go back 65 million years to see how the asteroid was able to kill all the dinosaurs while birds survived.

Then I'd check out some of the major battles. The ones I want to see are big, long ones that feature exotic animals or weapons.

Battle of Gaugemala
Battle of Hydapses River
Battle of Mylae
Battle of Qadassiya
Battle of Yarmuk
Third Battle of Panipat
Battle of Hampton Roads
The Last Stand of Tenochtitlan

Then I would try to find out who built the Sphinx, how Stonehenge, Moai and others were built.

There are also mysteries that I want to look into, like what happened to the Indus River civilization, why Classical Mayan civilization fell, who the Sea People were, when Zoroaster was alive, etc.

Berlin?

The Red Army took Berlin. The 101st had an impressive experience during the Second World War, from Normandy to the Ardennes to Bavaria, but they never got anywhere close to Berlin.

A few things I would want to witness firsthand:
Fall of the Berlin Wall
Apollo 11 moon landing

Dissolution of the Soviet Union
Invasion of Normandy

The historical importance of each moment would've been very amazing to see in person. What historical moment in history would you have liked to witness?
You are young. I remember watching the Berlin Wall fall on TV. And the dissolution of the Soviet Union.
