U.S. Marine Corps Col. Benjamin T. Watson, commanding officer of Marine Barracks Washington, speaks to guests during the sunset parade reception at the Women in Military Service for America Memorial, Arlington, Va., June 23, 2015. Nicole Spaid, 2015 military spouse of the year, was the guest of honor for the parade, and U.S. Marine Corps Lt. Gen. Thomas D. Waldhauser, was the hosting official. Since September 1956, marching and musical units from Marine Barracks Washington, D.C., have been paying tribute to those whose “Uncommon valor was a common virtue” by presenting sunset parades in the shadow of the 32-foot high figure of the United States Marine Corps War Memorial.
