William, Grayson, Max, and Blake at Arlington National Cemetery.
Our group is the first to arrive at the grave of John F. Kennedy. Notice the "Eternal Flame."
Sarah, Sierra, Paige, Zoe, Emma, and Sara take a short break after reaching the top of the hill in the cemetery at Arlington House (home of Robert E. Lee).
Chet talks about a tomb of Civil War soldiers. Burried beneath this tomb is over 2,000 men who died fighting in this war.
Chet talks about several significant burials that we are about to see: the Maine Memorial, the Challenger Shuttle Memorial, the Columbia Shuttle, and the Audie Murphy grave. We are sitting right behind the amphitheater at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
