The National Museum of the Marine Corps has a full service mess hall (they promise the food is better than what those of you in the military may remember) as well as a recreated Tun Tavern.
Tun Tavern, as Marine Corps lore has it, is where the Marine Corps was born - - on November 10, 1775.
NMMC's Tun Tavern can seat about 40 people and will serve colonial style food along with Anheuser-Busch beverages. Anheuser-Busch and Pepsi Cola gave large donationts to the museum - - so give them a big OOORAH! for that!
The mess hall will not server beer - - but Pepsi. There is a nice view out the windows overlooking the walkway entrance and there are some amazing photos on the wall - - all mess hall themed.
I'm a Coca-Cola girl so I'm a bit disappointed that I won't be able to grab a 'Coke'.
30 Sept pictures. These are proof positive that I would not have done well in the military. Our directions were to not open any closed doors. The doors were closed - - but not locked - - so that means its o.k. to go in right??? Yep, I broke the rules 10 minutes after they were given - - and I dragged another person along with me. However, while we were inside some other folks also opened the closed doors. So - - we were not alone in our transgression.
Stay tuned for the Vietnam Gallery.
