Our second visit was after we had visited the Vietnam Memorial. Now whenever we drive from RI to SC to visit my younger son and his family we try to stop by Arlington Cemetery for a moment of silence and to pay our respect to the Unknown soldier<br /><br />Every Memorial Day when they were in the Boy Scouts my sons went to pay their respects to the fallen with my husband.<br /><br />Now more than ever it's important to honor those who have fought for the rights of all.Jeanne Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05111451097520221555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2239675967200064225.post-26151370602413522972012-05-30T01:30:21.320-07:002012-05-30T01:30:21.320-07:00I visited Arlington once.

Another 29 are buried at two other sites. The grave of the unknown child was so sad. Child was never identified. So many graves do not have names. Many others were sent back to England for burial. If you are ever near Halifax, be sure to visit and learn so much more about the passengers who are buried there.<br />We had group of Vets visit and put flags on graves at local cemetery for Memorial Day.<br />Congrats to winners.<br /><br />misskallie2000 at yahoo dot commisskallie2000https://www.blogger.com/profile/09235631978482541630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2239675967200064225.post-83242192728797713342012-05-28T13:11:43.825-07:002012-05-28T13:11:43.825-07:00I've been to Arlington Cemetery three times. ...I've been to Arlington Cemetery three times.
