Trump joins Wreaths Across America in laying wreaths at Arlington National Cemetery

[Ravenworks]

President Trump paid a Saturday visit to Arlington National Cemetery, where thousands of volunteers had just taken part in the rain in the annual holiday wreath-laying tribute to those who served—and died-- in America’s wars.

Trump made the unscheduled stop to the famous military ceremony about 2:15 p.m. ET, hours after the event began.

I walk it in it's entirely when ever I go to DC.

It's the least I can do to pay respect to the 24th MAU

There is a lot of people in there,it's weird when you see a general that you read about in history class from the 1800's

The endless rows of tombstones is  heartbreaking. ?

My father always told me,when you think you have it bad there is always someone that has it worse.

Lot of heartache for the living,something most of today's youth can't grasp.

Very true. My Dad is buried up in Fort Snelling cemetery in Minneapolis. So is a guy I knew who didn’t make it back from Vietnam. Visit when I am there.

Few folks I know from 1/8-A-co 24 MAU that were in Beirut now reside in Arlington.
