Greatest time of my life. The caliber of men on my relief, and in our platoon. Wreath Bearer for the Vietnam Unknown. My "grandparents" coming down to see me, and me getting to escort them to Vietnam Valley to see their Sons headstone, which they had never seen. So many wonderful memories.Contact Information

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.
