This was a very interesting and special place to visit. We could feel the peace and spirit of the cemetery. It was humbling to see so many grave markers. Some were children that had died during the Civil War. We saw the graves of Thurgood Marshall, Robert Kennedy, John F Kennedy and Jacqueline. We thoroughly enjoyed the events at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier - the wreath laying ceremony and the Changing of the Guard. It was very cool. I wish we had more time there to wander around, but I hadn't realized how huge that place really is.

It was very cool to be there on Memorial Weekend and see all the flags by the graves. I can only imagine how long it took to put those all out.
This is the Memorial to the Navy.
