I'm kicking myself for not visiting it when I had a guy in the brig there.
When I checked in at Pax River, was told one of my guys was in the Quantico brig, and we needed to visit him once a week. I rotated with my senior chief. I think I only had to make a couple trips before his court martial was concluded.
For those who don't know, the museum was pretty close to the brig.
