A lot of stuff that was fun and a lot not so fun.Respect to those who board the rides to the nastiest places in the world for our freedom.
So many memories with some of the most professional and disciplined guys I have ever had the pleasure to work with.
Nothing compares to the feeling of the first walk of a crisp morning, when it is only you and the unknowns, and the fog is creeping through the cemetery.

Did you know?
What is the process to lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier?
Wreath laying ceremonies are conducted thousands of times each year by many organizations. If you are going soon, there is likely no availability for conducting this ceremony as the slots fill up at least six months in advance. Please visit arlingtoncemetery.mil for more detailed information and to request that honor if you are part of an organization planning a visit.
Wreaths are provided or arranged to be delivered by the public. All questions you may have about that ceremony can be answered on the ANC website or through the cemetery staff.
