The Museum of the Marine Corps in Triangle, Virginia (just outside Quantico) is an excellent museum. I went there on January 27, 2013, and shot this video — it is completely unauthorized by anyone at the museum, and I did not coordinate this with anyone there. I tried to tell the story of the entire museum, which isn’t really possible in an 8-minute video.

I highly recommend a visit to the Museum of the Marine Corps. Not only is it free, it is a terrific way to spend a day.

I shot this video with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS20 digital camera and edited it with Corel VideoStudio Pro x4 software.

  1. Err… umm… ahh… just for the record, I'm a US Army veteran, not an ex-Marine. I just like going to museums, and this is an excellent museum.

  2. Yeah, this is a REALLY good museum, and it's free.

    BTW… your name (mindianaj0nes) cracks me up. Very clever!

  3. I’m a grandson to a Marine and he was an 0331 Machine Gunner and he served more than 20 years in the Marines and he was stationed at Camp Lejeune and he fought in the Vietnam war and he never talked about the war and he finished as an E-9 (Master Gunnery Sergeant) and ever since I was little I’ve always wanted to be a Marine and he gave me his Purple Heart and he was shot three times one in his leg one his shoulder and one that hit his radio but my grandfather never talked about the Vietnam war so I never asked him about it and I have three reasons why I’ve always wanted to be a Marine

    1 – because I saw all the marine corps commercials

    2 – because I want to honor my grandfather as a Marine because he was a Marine himself for more than 20 years

    3 – I want to fight for the fallen brothers and sisters that died in Kabul Afghanistan on August 26 2021
