I worked on the "old side" of the St. E's grounds in the early 90's. Absolutely gorgeous landscaping, several small Civil War graveyards tucked away, and fantastic architecture.

The main admin building (still in use at the time) and the grounds provided the outside court building scenes in "A Few Good Men".

The flowers, anchor and cannons were all props, and the Marines drilling in front in one scene were actually members of the Texas A&M Corps of Cadets.

About 100 yards to the left on this building, I was providing security for a facility that housed crazy members of the Mariel Boat Lift and assorted others.
