Bedford is a New England college town in the United States of America, in the state of Connecticut. Home of Marshall College, it is where Indiana Jones resides while teaching at the school. It is not far from New York City, which has the nearest international airport. In 1936, after coming up empty-handed in his trip to Peru to find the Chachapoyan Fertility Idol, Jones returned to teach archaeology at Marshall College. After a visit from Major Eaton and Colonel Musgrove, he stopped by his house to pack for his trip to Nepal.
