On a rainy day, the spire of the Old Post Chapel can be seen rising above Fort Myer Henderson Hall, towards the clouds. The spire is clothed in a patina, that has developed through years of exposure to the elements. A patina is something transformed beautifully through age or use. This spire is a representation of all those that pass beneath it. Soldiers, veterans, families, spouses, and friends that support a higher purpose, an honor, and a duty. Serving our country each and every day.
