Arlington Cemetery

What an awesome experience we had observing the graves of all the soldiers who have fought to serve our country. We watched the changing of the guard at the tomb of the unknown soldier. It was so powerful to see and feel the respect being paid to those who have helped make our country free. I will post some pics and a video of the changing of the guard.

  1. It was really cool seeing the change of the guard.
    I can not belive that it would take a long time to change the guards though.
    But all together it was pretty cool!

  2. I think that the Arlington Cemetery is something everyone should get to experience. This is what touched me the most I think. To see these guards basically giving up 4 years of their own life, to pay respect and honor those who fought for our freedom is simply amazing (: Thank you Mrs. Grissom , Mrs. Allred, Mrs. Marsh, and Mrs. Southard, for making this trip something I will ALWAYS remember!
