Pronounciation
[edit]How do you pronounce "Quantico"? Quan ti' co? Or, Quan' ti co? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.200.145.181 (talk) 01:12, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
QUAN-tee-coh. Joeylawn (talk) 04:18, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
- If anyone wants to put an abridged version of the etymology, it's available at Quantico Creek —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.164.60.27 (talk) 13:00, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- An IP removed the /t/ last April, and when I look at news clips that mention the place, it indeed seems to often be pronounced without the /t/. Nonetheless, dictionaries, e.g. [1] and [2], uniformly list the /t/, so I've restored that as an option. -sche (talk) 00:20, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
FBI
[edit]Just as easily as people associate Langley with the CIA, people connect Quantico with the FBI. So the box and category deserve to stay.--67.84.73.254 (talk) 17:14, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
Map
[edit]The map for this (in the infobox) - among others - needs some sort reference, eg. a local major city or landmark, as, as it stands, it means very little to anyone with only limited knowledge of the shape and location of VA.Angry Mustelid (talk) 03:50, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
