Watson, commanding officer of Marine Barracks Washington, salute the national ensign during the Sunset Parade at the Marine Corps War Memorial, Arlington, Va., June 9, 2015. Barnum and Fales were the guests of honor for the parade, with Laster as 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 figures of the United States Marine Corps War Memorial.
