In addition to my first comment, here's a cool story. In sixth grade I lived in Hahira, GA. We took a field trip to DC and we visited ANC and saw the Tomb of the Unknowns. I was amazed at the precision of those guys. Fast forward a few decades and I joined the army. I was plucked by the army to join the Old Guard because of my height and measurements, etc. My platoon Sergeant became Sergeant of the Guard at TUS, and made me go with him. One day I found myself walking onto the plaza standing in the inspection block (nervous as hell....huge crowd for my first walk) and remembering standing there in 6th grade. It somehow came full circle and I became a Sentinel at TUS. Now I'm out and I work at ANC leading funeral ceremonies and assisting grieving families.

[@JohnJApanovitch]

I've been here at this cemetery. We came here during our 8th grade trip to Washington, D.C., and it was really a huge privilege. We actually saw the grave of President Kennedy, the Eternal Flame, and the switching of the Guard. That was back in 2014, but it was one of the greatest things I've ever had the chance to do.

[@Whittdocs]

I really really enjoyed my visit here. Thanks for sharing that.

You didn’t visit Audie Murphy’s Grave. He was the most decorated Army soldier in World War 2 and afterward became a movie star of Westerns in the 50’s and 60’s. He was also a poet and country songwriter and had some of his songs recorded by some of the best country and western singers of the day such as Johnny Cash, Roy Clark and Charlie Pride to name a few. Audie was killed in a plane crash in 1971. His is the second most visited grave site in Arlington behind President John F. Kennedy.

I really hope to make a return visit and pay my respects to him. Thank you for watching.

[@lifebybill1326]

Your post is written just like the bio I had to memorize to be selected as a member of the SGT Audie Murphy Club in the U.S. Army. Audie Murphy’s Biography Audie Leon Murphy was a legend in his own time - a war hero, movie actor, writer of country and western songs and poet. His biography read more like fiction than fact. He lived only 46 years, but made a lasting impression on American history. Audie was born on a sharecropper’s farm in North Texas on June 20, 1924. As a boy, he chopped cotton for one dollar a day and was noted for his feats of derring-do and his accuracy with a weapon. He had only 5 years of schooling and was orphaned at age 16. After being refused enlistment during World War II by both the Marines and Paratroopers for being too small (5’5") and underweight (110 lbs.), he enlisted in the U.S. Army a few days after his 18th birthday. After basic training at Camp Wolters, Texas, and advanced training at Fort Meade, Maryland, Audie was sent overseas. He was assigned to the famous 15th Infantry Regiment of the 3rd Infantry Division where he fought in North Africa, Sicily, Italy, France, and Germany. He earned a battlefield commission for his courage and leadership ability, as well as citations and decorations including every medal for valor that America gives. He was also awarded one Belgian and three French medals. Lieutenant Audie Murphy is one of the most decorated Soldiers in American history. Discharged from the Army on September 21, 1945, Audie went to Hollywood at the invitation of movie star James Cagney. He remained in California for the rest of his life and was closely associated with the movie industry, both as an actor and a producer. He acted in 44 films, starring in 39 of them. His best known film is "To Hell and Back", adopted from the best selling book of his war experiences. Most of his movies were westerns. In 1955, Audie Murphy was voted the Most Popular Western Actor in America by the Motion Picture Exhibitors. Audie wrote the lyrics to 16 country and western songs, the most popular of which was "Shutters and Boards", written with Scott Turner in 1962. The song was recorded by over 30 pop singers, including Jerry Wallace, Dean Martin, and Porter Waggoner. He was an accomplished poet; unfortunately, only a few of his poems have survived. In 1950 Audie joined the 36th Infantry Division ("T-Patchers") of the Texas National Guard and served with it until 1966. He was a Shriner (Mason) and belonged to several veterans’ organizations. Audie Murphy was killed in a plane crash on a mountaintop near Roanoke, Virginia on May 28, 1971. Fittingly, his body was recovered 2 days later on Memorial Day. Audie Murphy is buried in Arlington National Cemetery. His grave is the second most visited grave behind that of JFK's eternal flame.

You probably don't know the truth about Arlington. You know, it being Robert E. Lee's home and Plantation, till he was offered Command of the entire US Army., but, turned it down, because he couldn't fight against the whole of his Family. The US troops took it from them after he left for Richmond. His wife's Father owned it (George Washington Park Custus, and YES, He's the Grandson of George and Martha Washington, and Lee's wife the Great Granddaughter. His OWN kids being the Great Great Grandchildren of the founder of the US!! Kinda warped, isn't it??) And gave it to them as a Wedding gift.

We were there in 2012 with my daughter's 5th grade class. Arlington is beautiful, somber,but peaceful. The changing of the guard at the Tomb of Unknowns is amazing. We were allowed to go right to JFK's grave. From there we could see the Washington Monument, the Capitol, and more. Our guide told us that Jackie choose that spot because when they were there one day, he looked down from the hill and saw so many things that are "Washington DC", and he told her, " I could stay in this spot forever." It truly is a beautiful, magnificent view. The big home that is there was General Robert E. LEE's wife's family home. The Union Army took it from them during the Civil War as revenge for leaving his commission as a Union Army officer to fight for the Confederacy. He did that because he said he could not fight against his beloved Virginia.

Truly amazing, and the touch of the song Hard Times Come Again no More really adds a calming feel to it.

[@Whittdocs]

Thanks for the kindness. A few people have complained about the music. I like it in there though. I truly appreciate your comment.

[@designeddino]

@@Whittdocs People complaining about a folk song that is about the pursuit of peace??? Man... that's honestly odd...

I went in the Army in 1970. I am probably one of a handful of remaining WACS (Women's Army Corp) still around. I was 18 years old when I walked into the Cemetery in Dress Greens. It was truly overwhelming. Especially with the rate of our young men dying during Vietnam. I will NEVER forget seeing the "Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown soldiers. The young man that represented a soldier from Vietnam was Michael Blassie and he was from Missouri. It was an honor to know he got to come home to his family. Nice Video sir thank you.

Been there many times. My great uncle is buried there.. Such a peaceful place. When my daughter was a girl scout, a few years ago, she and the other girl scouts had the honor to lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown solder. It was very emotional for all of since the girls were so young. We went back another year during Christmas and we all layed Christmas wreaths on most if not all of the soldiers graves. On 2 different occasions the girl scouts, we were allowed to go inside of the White House for a tour. Toured the Petersen House where President Abraham Lincoln died. We are from Va., DC is only 3 hours away therefore we travel there often. So much to see there, so much history.
