    Visited this museum in November of 2014 with my Korean daughter-in-law (my American army son's wife). We had not been there very long when SoJung said to me, "look mummy, it's your Father." There was a mannequin dressed in the uniform of a drummer from the Marine Corp Band. His uniform was almost identical to one of the British Guards. I mentioned this to one of the museum guides and he explained that the American Marine Corp Band copied the uniforms of the British Guards. Meanwhile, after taking a photo of the mannequin, we sent it to my brother in England explaining that we had found my Father.

    Having seen that they were awarded an Oscar I thought I'd better watch the film.
