Quantico National Cemetery
Quantico National Cemetery, Military cemetery in Prince William County, United States.
The cemetery spans 725 acres of former Marine Corps training grounds, featuring orderly rows of white grave markers across rolling Virginia landscapes.
The land served Virginia Navy operations in 1775 and later became a Confederate Army blockade point before its transformation into a national cemetery in 1983.
Nine memorial structures honor military units, including monuments dedicated to Edson's Raiders and Purple Heart recipients who rest within the grounds.
The cemetery opens daily from sunrise to sunset, with an electronic gravesite locator available in the administration building's breezeway for visitor assistance.
The Avenue of Flags program allows families to donate veterans' flags for display during commemorative events throughout the cemetery grounds.
