A U.S. Marine with the U.S. Marine Corps Drum and Bugle Corps performs during a sunset parade at the Marine Corps War Memorial, Arlington, Va., June 30, 2015. The Honorable Ashton B. Carter, Secretary of Defense, was the guest of honor for the parade, and Gen. Joseph F. Dunford, commandant of the Marine Corps, 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 figures of the United States Marine Corps War Memorial.
