National Museum of the Marine Corps – 24 JUL 2011

Located in Quantico, VA; my students told me I couldn’t miss the place as it is a distinctive building which can be seen for miles.

"1943 – Across the reef at Tarawa” (Above and two photos below.)

Most of their manikins were wax museum quality.

I said most.

Norman Rockwell’s Saturday Evening Post Cover (October 13, 1945) - The War Hero (Homecoming Marine):

Not a Royal Place Guard... 

…he’s a Drum Major in the marine band.

There were several interactive exhibits for children, none of them were Teletubby friendly.
