Made in America

"We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm."

THANK YOU to all our veterans. Those who served and those who are serving now. All made a sacrifice with their service and some made the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you for your service!

 

Veterans Day Tribute to the American Soldier 2011; Many of the Men in this video have given their lives in heroic action for their country and for the people of Afghanistan and Iraq. Several of these Men were awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. Their Brothers in Arms deserve no less recognition for their service......

No Laughing at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

The Old Guard does not tolerate disrespect at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.  This is what happens when you don't show respect at the Tomb...

Watch and find out.

 

Only under exceptional circumstances may the guard speak or alter his silent, measured tour of duty. He will issue a warning if anyone attempts to enter the restricted area around the Tomb, but first will halt and bring his rifle to port arms.
