I may be a retired squid but I gotta give due credit to the Corps.
I encourage anyone visiting the DC area to take a trip south on I-95 to Quantico and visit this great Museum.
I decided one day to play hookie during lunch and check it out. Very informative. The diaramas are fantastic and look nearly real-life! You almost can hear the sound of amtraks and helos... The building design is in the absract of the rasing of the flag on Suribachi. These were taken with a phone camera so I apologize for the quality being kinda fuzzy.
Some pics:
Front Entrance
Tarawa Landing
Tarawa Landing overhead
I'll post some better pics soon, I think I may just get over there sometime this week just to do something.
Godspeed, Fair Winds & Following Seas....
