In Flanders fields ....
S!
Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

I don't remember if all of these are located at Arlington Cemetery, but I do remember just how overwhelmingly massive Arlington Cemetery was, grave markers spanning as far as the eye could see.
. Indeed it is. Both of my parents are buried there and I visit at least twice a year.

I haven't been to Arlington since I was probably around 10 years old. Still remember it vividly.
I have an Uncle buried there.
Like Archie said, God Bless em all.

I just stumbled onto this: went to visit her late grandfather John Domenech’s grave when she had the idea to visit graves on the behalf of others who might not be allowed in the cemetery due to social distancing restrictions. Domenech tweeted, “Does anyone have buddies buried in Arlington who they would like visited today? Since only family members are allowed in, I would be honored to pay respects on your behalf…” She ended up visiting and placing flowers on 60 graves. https://thefederalist.com/2020/05/2...uldnt-visit-arlington-national-cemetery/
