National Museum of the Marine Corps






We stopped at the Marine Corps Museum on the way back from VA beach and I thought it was very nice. I recommend the visit! There was so much to see. BB loved it of course, and now can't decide whether or not to go into the Army or Marines now. In the last picture he is standing by his favorite gun. There were alot of those in there, and tanks, and planes and soldiers and war scenes. So much in there I couldn't post all of the pictures. If you are ever in the area of Quantico, VA, I suggest stopping by. Well worth it.

It is nice to see that you guys did the patriotic thing, I always have a sense of pride at places like that Grandpa Martin fought and was wounded in Guadalcanal in WWII. He was a Marine, and he never talked about it, which always said more than those who go into great detail.

BTW, tell BB that if he wants to serve the country the Coast Guard has a nice route through the Bahamas. I know it doesn't seem exciting but here in a few years it will make sense to him

I didn't realize he was a Marine. Cool. It was a really nice museum. Seemed like one you would go into in DC.
