Guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

Through rain or snow, those who guard the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier do so proudly.

My husband is in the honor guard. His dream is to do this, once in his life.

Imagine the thoughts that go through their minds while alone guarding the tomb at night in the rain and snow... or just alone at night.

This past week I visited Arlington National Cemetary for the first time and I was in awe of these soldiers. The first guard I saw was so precise so perfect I honestly thought for a moment that he was a robot. I visited for two days and watch the changing of the guard at least 6 times and all were perfect. Watching these soldiers made me feel emotions I did not know I even had. I am a Veteran and I am annoyed with myself for not having visited sooner. If you can go to Arlington you will not be disappointed.

This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing this video. Brings tears to my eyes to think of all those who died in service to our country -- names & faces that may have been lost to the history books -- even women & children who followed their husbands/fathers on the battlefield & through the woods during the civil war, because there was nothing for them back home... So many faces, beating hearts, with courage & fear & tears & pain, but filled with hope because they believed in what America stood for. Let us honor them in our lives each day by celebrating the freedoms we have today...by never forgetting. Praise & respect to the Guards. You are amazing human beings & an inspiration to little boys & girls & people everywhere! May the Lord bless you & keep you always. Peace be with you all.

Awesome video, the honor guard. I got that at one time but not in DC, I was at Ft. Hood and again in Korea when I had it. Awesome stuff and a very enlightening experience. One to change you forever.

My family had an unknown until 2016 from the attack on Pearl Harbor & USS Oklahoma. The Vietnam unknown was identified and so many families have never gotten that closure.

Somewhere I always wanted to visit to pay my respects and to honor all those veterans of our greatest ally who gave the utmost.
