Arlington is the final resting place for thousands of America's service members, veterans and their families.
About us
Arlington National Cemetery is the final resting place for more than 400,000 active duty service members, veterans and their families. Service to country is the common thread that binds all who are remembered and honored here. Arlington is both a national treasure and an active cemetery. The cemetery conducts between 27-30 funerals each week day and between six and eight services on Saturdays – nearly 7,000 services per year. The cemetery hosts more than 3,000 ceremonies per year, including wreath-laying ceremonies for national and international dignitaries; memorial and remembrance services; services honoring specialized groups, units and historical events; and national observances for Memorial Day and Veterans Day. More than three million people visit each year. Laying our Nation’s veterans and their eligible family members to rest with dignity and honor, while treating their loved ones with respect and compassion, is the cornerstone of Arlington National Cemetery’s mission. It’s not uncommon for those visiting the cemetery to see a horse-drawn caisson carrying an American flag-draped casket, hear the firing of three rifle volleys in the distance, or hear the 24 lingering notes of Taps. These honors are examples of the dignified way we take care of those who have defended and protected our freedoms. Monuments, memorials and dedicated trees commemorating individuals and significant events in our Nation’s history are interspersed throughout the cemetery among the headstones of those for whom Arlington is the final resting place. They honor service members and events from all branches of the military, and pay respect to astronauts, nurses, chaplains, war correspondents and unknowns, just to name a few. We encourage visitors to discover Arlington’s rich history, witness the time-honored ceremonies, take in the scenic landscapes, wander through the headstones and monuments, reflect on the names, and ponder the stories each person could tell.

When Spc. Malachi Hamber walks out to relieve the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, he always draws attention. Standing at 6' 9", Hamber is the tallest current Tomb Guard soldier, and possibly the tallest soldier in the Guard’s history. ℹ https://lnkd.in/ee-kbrxn

U.S. Navy Seaman Second Class Challis James celebrated his eighteenth birthday three weeks before his death at Pearl Harbor, on Dec. 7, 1941. He was serving aboard the battleship USS Oklahoma when several Japanese torpedoes slammed into its hull, forcing it to capsize. The ship became his grave. Since James’ remains were later recovered but not identified, he was initially buried as an unknown at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Hawaii. In 2015, the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) disinterred the remains of James and other USS Oklahoma crewmen. DPAA identified James’ remains on Jan. 29, 2016. Three of James’ nephews and their families came to Arlington National Cemetery on June 28, 2024, to bury the uncle they never knew. Navy Chaplain (Lt. Cmdr.) Doyl McMurray told the attendants, “Today we can only honor the kind of man that he was, and his family’s sacrifice of all of the potential that he had.” The chaplain then spoke about James’ obligation to the Navy. “With war on the horizon, he served anyway,” said McMurray. “In this, and in many ways, he demonstrated the Navy’s corps values of honor, courage, and commitment.” James was the namesake of his nephew, Challis Elliott, who said after the funeral that his mother rarely spoke about her brother. “She just said that he was smart and artistic,” Elliott recalled. “All we have is a picture of his ship, and he wrote, ‘this is the boat I’m going to be on.’” Elliott and his brothers, Wynn and Ty, considered reburying their uncle at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific but decided on Arlington National Cemetery. “We thought it was a great honor to be buried here,” Challis Elliott said. ✍ Kevin Hymel 🎥 Daryl Vaca https://lnkd.in/eAG_qKwK
