I thought the museum was being built at Quantico.

[trooprally]

It is, but parking is scare for the thousands of people who will be attending.

Where is the museum?

[trooprally]

At the Quantico Marine Base, VA, just off I-95.

My son spent last summer at Quantico at OCS school, and he'll be returning next summer for OTS. His proud dad and mom will undoubtedly visit then, and I'm looking forward to visiting this museum.

[trooprally]

I had the Mods add the location to the title. Thanks for your comments.

But you must not have passed Mind Reading 101 because I knew exactly where it was. :-))

[Mr] T

[trooprally]

Tell your son Thanks for his service.

If you haven't already, check out the pics on Leadpenny's thread. Concretebob has spent the better part of the summer/fall working on the Museum.

Okay. But where on the base is it? I spent about a year and a half there, '70 to '72. There was a small museum near the Exchange, which I believe is not in the same place it was back then.

My wife's dad was a WW2 Marine and her uncle's remains are still somewhere at Inchon.

It borders on the east side of I-95 immediately when you get off at the Quantico exit. You can see it for miles when traveling on I-95.
