Arlington National Cemetery honors the fallen heroes who have served our country in the military. Meet Sandra Griffin, a leader in today’s all-volunteer Arlington Ladies community. The Air Force Arlington Ladies have not missed a single airman's funeral since 1948, and Arlington Ladies for other branches also have attended services at Arlington for decades. "We're not professional mourners,” Griffin says. "We're here because we're representing the Air Force family and we want to be here because one day our families are going to be sitting there in that chair.”
