Article should be moved to "Washington, D.C." The "DC" suffix, without periods, is a modern postal abbreviation that was introduced in 1963, along with ZIP codes, well after the era of the Indiana Jones stories. Before the introduction of these two-letter uppercase abbreviations, states and territories were abbreviated with a mix of upper and lowercase, with periods, such as "Calif." for California, "Ariz." for Arizona, "Miss." for Mississippi, and so on.
