The Marine Corps Heritage Foundation is raising money to restore the Iwo Jima monument outside Marine Corps Base Quantico after vandalism on Oct. 21 left one figure without a head and caused other significant damage.
Prince William County police estimate the damage in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. The limestone sculpture by Felix de Weldon depicts the flag-raising on Mount Suribachi during the Battle of Iwo Jima on Feb. 23, 1945. It is a smaller version of the Marine Corps War Memorial in Arlington, also by de Weldon.
The Town of Quantico has lifted its boil-water advisory after the second required water sample came back clean and the Virginia Department of Health approved cancelling the order, according to a public notice from the town Friday.
The notice applies only to the Town of Quantico waterworks. It does not apply to the Marine Corps Base Quantico waterworks.
