While my family was here, we visited the National Marine Corps Museum, near Quantico. It was surprisingly interesting. the exhibits had lots of models, which helped visualize the information. The marines have certainly taken part in many epic conflicts. I was especially excited to see one of the original flags that flew over Iwo Jima. No flash pictures of it are allowed, and the room is kept very dark to protect the delicate cotten fabric from further deterioration, or I would post a picture of it.
