SCIF Veterans Committee Wreath Laying Ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery

Arlington National Cemetery is considered hallowed ground in the United States. It is the final resting place for numerous U.S. presidents, heads of state, military officers and dignitaries.

The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is a sacred memorial site at the center of Arlington National Cemetery and one of the most iconic memorials in the na­tion. The neoclassical, white marble tomb stands atop a hill overlooking Washington, D.C.

Since 1921, it has provided a final resting place for one of America’s un­identified World War I service mem­bers, and Unknowns from later wars were added in 1958 and 1984. The Tomb also serves as a place of mourn­ing and a site for reflection on military service.
