(Finally!)

Mark down Sunday, 9 July, on your calendars:

On July 9, 2017, the National Museum of the Marine Corps will open a new Marine Corps Combat Art Gallery. The gallery will feature changing exhibitions of the Museum’s combat art collection.

The first exhibition in the gallery, Honor, Courage, Commitment: Marine Corps Art, 1975-2015, honors Marines who have served in the Corps during the last 40 years and echoes the core values of the Marine Corps: honor, courage, and commitment. One hundred works of art by 22 artist[s] are divided among three themes.

The exhibit will be on display until April 2018. Come visit!

Admission to the Museum and parking are FREE!

I expect there will be some great works on display. You really should go see it; it’s worth the drive to get there.

A 1989 graduate of the Virginia Military Institute, he is a retired artillery officer in the United States Marine Corps, with time in both the active and reserve sides. He served in Iraq in 2004, and in Afghanistan in 2009-2010. He joined the magnificent OPFOR.com as a guest blogger from the now defunct but never uninteresting Rule 308, where he denounced gun control and other aspects of tyranny, and proclaimed the greatness of the United States. When the sun set on OPFOR.com, he migrated here with Keydet1976 and the others.
