Here are some links that might enhance the value of a field trip to Arlington and Alexandria, which originally were part of the national capital district:
- Arlington National Cemetery: http://www.arlingtoncemetery.org/
- Custis-Lee Mansion, tp://www.nps.gov/history/history/online_books/hh/6/hh6d.htm
- United States Marine Corps Memorial (Iwo Jima statue): http://www.nps.gov/archive/gwmp/usmc.htm
- Carlyle House: http://www.nvrpa.org/parks/carlylehouse/index.php
Anyone interested in doing more on his or her own should consider visiting the Lee-Fendall House at 614 Oronoco Street: http://www.leefendallhouse.org/, and the George Washington Masonic Memorial: http://www.gwmemorial.org/index.php. Both are in Alexandria.
