One of my neighbors is the Commandant of the US Marines. This is his home. I made an ink and watercolor drawing of it for the Barrack's Row Fall Festival. It is quite an impressive building, and dates back to 1806.
If I go by last year, the Marines are very supportive of the Fall Festival. They did a full color guard and a short band program last year, and I remember it. My booth will be pretty close to their bandstand, so I hope to hear it again. As part of the color guard, they have an American flag with banner ribbons from every campaign the US Marines have been involved in. That is something to see.
