If you haven't been yet, go! It is definitely the best museum I've ever been to and I've been to alot. It's at exit 150A on 95 and is free and open 9-5 everyday but Christmas. I went yesterday. My pictures are here: www.flickr.com/photos/jeffq/sets/72157600010692109/ |

I only had a couple of hours so I didn't get to go as slowly as I wanted to so I may have missed any specific items about him in the different galleries or exhibits.
There is a multimedia kiosk in the middle of the timeline area that has info on all the past Commandants.
I was trying to make sure we got to the MOH section because of my wife's great-uncle who posthumously received a Medal of Honor for actions in the Pacific in WWII. We were also looking to see if the uniform some of her cousins donated that belonged to him turned up anywhere too. Headed back through DC after that since it was the 2nd anniversary of my proposing at the Jefferson Memorial.
