QUANTICO, Va. -- Workers spent the better part of Thursday morning cleaning the spire.
It was the first time the silver belfry, representing a flag pole from the iconic Iwo Jima raising of the flag photo captured during WWII, had been cleaned since the National Museum of the Marine Corps opened in 2006.
The museum is undergoing construction to complete the circular footprint of the building. The effort to "complete the circle" is in the final stages, and when construction is finished it will bring a new giant-screen theater, art gallery, exhibit galleries, classrooms, and lunchrooms to the expanding complex at Quantico.
