I just want to thank you two for the respect you show my country.
Amen to that!
Having grown up outside Washington, DC, there are two sights that hold this type of emotional weight: the Tomb of the Unknowns and the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. Because the Vietnam Memorial lists every American who was killed in the conflict and their surviving friends and relatives leave personal tributes, it is very emotional to experience.
With a military funeral there are several traditions that can be emotional, even if you don’t know the deceased personally: the presentation of the flag to the family, playing of Taps on a bugle, the playing of Amazing Grace on the bagpipes and a flyover in the “missing man” formation.
Thank you for how much you honor our military, traditions and patriotism
My son also carried caskets and been on the 21 gun salutes. So so proud of him and all the soldiers there at Arlington! 💞
As a vet, this is very touching. I loved it!
Thank you for your service.
As a vet myself every time someone says thank you for your service…. I cry inside a little for it is not me you should be thanking, nor any of us who came home. You should be thanking the ones who gave the ultimate sacrifice. They deserve your praise and recognition. Period.
Just heard about the building explosion in Jersey. Hoping you and your families are safe!
My little brother’s name is on “The Wall”...

Miss you every day, Doug...💔
Idk why i need to say this, but thank you both. The tomb is something that is hallowed and engrained respect for most Americans. That someone from another country could view this and tap into the emotions this documentary envokes is quite frankly awesome. So again, thank you for reacting to and respecting this video. You two are very definitely appreciated by many of us in the U.S.A. God bless you and Merry Christmas. Praying for the families on Jersey affected by that blast.
The Tomb of The Unknown Soldier is thee most respected area as it should be.
I was privileged to attend the interment of a friend there. It is sacred ground. Everyone should visit at least once. It humbles you.
I served with my best friend growing up we both ended up together in Afghanistan 2001-2004 he was killed in a fight 2 months before going home. He got a full honor burial. I balled watching this thank you for sharing this vid a lot of Americans are to self centered to really understand what it means to serve
Condolences...
I watched my First "Football" game today and cheered for England...
My team Clemson while they won their Conference Championship, we lost to our arch rival at our stadium Death Valley by 1 point, 31-30...
We were favored by 14 points..
I FEEL your pain...
I love how this is the most American British couple
My parents received a folded flag in honor of my sister. She was an Air Force veteran. She was murdered and the killer was never caught. To this day, my mother can not look at that folded flag. It is stored away.
Praying for your family...❤️🙏🏻💝
I took a vacation in the area around Washington DC. The place my family stayed on vacation offered a bus tour to DC. We know parking was a nightmare from a friend who had driven to DC and had a horrible experience trying to park. DC is so vast that we had to scale down a bit and slow it down. The changing of the Guard is perfection, although I haven’t seen the British changing of the guard at the palace. I would think it is fantastic too. We saw people getting in trouble with the guards for talking and crossing the lines, most people get camera crazy and forget about the restrictions. Thanks for sharing.
Anytime I watch a changing of the guards ceremony my eyes r never dry the amount of respect I have for our service members can't be explained with words they all r heros in my eyes God bless them all 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I finally made the trip to DC and visited the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.....it touched my heart.
Being from the pacific northwest, DC is so far away. I was lucky enough to go there. Saw the museums, the Vietnam wall (I choked up) and the changing of the guard. Believe me when I say, if you see these things IN PERSON you get a new perspective. You'll never forget how powerful it is. TV is one thing. Being ther e is another.
Funny about people that do dumb things at the changing of the guard. You would have to be a complete fool. Nobody makes a sound let alone go anywhere they're not supposed to. If you ever get a chance to go to DC, do it. The museums alone will blow your mind.
My ❤ broke when his friend and mentor was killed in action.😢
I have two generations of grandparents there. The last was my grandmother in 2015. They are all at the Columbariums portion of Arlington Cemetery in Virginia
Went there with my family back in 91 and its hallowed ground for all to see why freedom isn't so free. Its the sacrifce of those that gave the ultimate price for our country to live free and to have future generation realize the cost of those willing to defend. And being one of five Veterans in my family that served, three of us are combat vets. The other two on active, my son and niece. One Marine other she's Army, they know that they're part of a legacy of those who came before them and we honor especially those unknowns. Semper Fi.
“It’s hallowed.”
My nephew did this for most of his enlistment. He just recently got out, but just like this gentleman in the video; he was recruited right out of basic to serve at Arlington. He was there until the end of his enlistment. He also was there through the riots and the raid on the Capitol. It was rough for those guys some days. Casket duty is also very difficult.
I'm American, never traveled outside the country, but I visited The Tomb Of The Unknown soldier and the 9/11 memorial in New York, I cried hard at both places, to me they are the saddest places in America. I don't think I'd be able to visit these places again, the emotions I felt were deep, raw and unforgettable!!
Maybe I really shouldn't have said that because after I posted this comment I thought about the list of the saddest places in America and realized how much longer that list is growing, I hope I didn't offend anyone!!
Guess you guys are ok? Glad to see you uploading ;-)
I live about 2 miles from the Tomb, and recently attended a funeral of a friend at Arlington. Had never seen the original video, but I was also here near the Pentagon on 9/11, was a background extra in the movie "Gods and Generals" like the former Tomb Guard, and then served in the Army. Weird coincidence.
Glad you guys are going to stop in the DC area when y'all come out this way, let us know if you need help regarding planning/transport etc... whenever the time comes.
Absolutely amazing video as always. I would like to note that the audio in this video, as well as one the previous videos is a little choppy. Still overall great quality videos, just wanted to bring it to your attention.
Thank you both for the amazing videos!
Hope and your friends and families are safe from the blast in Jersey.
Before I even watch the video I just wanted to say sorry for your 3 Lions Boys. I'm American, so I didn't really have a horse in the race. But I know how much you guys love your national team and as far as I can tell, y'all are the only channel I watch that's in a Soccer/Footie loving country.
I worked at the Pentagon at my last duty assignment, second shift, I watched the young men practice out my window as I had a view of the fence. I never knew how much these men really went through. When I first went in, I said I'd never wear a Medium Reg or high and tight haircut, now I'm 59, and a high and tight recon flat for 15 years is on top of my head.
For some reason i think I remember hearing that they had actually identified the unknown soldier or at least one of them
The Vietnam Unknown was identified and removed in 1998.
Here is a video about a group of volunteers at Arlington National Cemetery, I hope you can find the time to react to the group is known as the Arlington Ladies. In 1948 General when Chief of Staff of the United States Air Force Hoyt Vandenberg, and his wife Gladys, witnessed young service members being buried without any family members present on one of their walks through the cemetery. Just a chaplain and a military honor guard, the standard attendees, were usually present. The lack of anyone honoring the young airman being buried prompted Gladys to form a group of members of the Officers' Wives Club to attend all Air Force funerals.
In 1972, the wife of Army Chief of Staff General Creighton Abrams, Julia, founded the Army's version of the group. In 1985, the Navy also followed suit by creating a group of their own. The Coast Guard Arlington Ladies group formed in 2006. The Marine Corps Arlington Ladies were established in 2016.
Originally, the women worked alone at the funerals. Escorts were eventually added as it was decided that they should appear to be a more official part of the ceremony. The escorts are also members of the Army's 3rd Infantry Regiment. The Army soldiers typically spend four months as escorts, while the Navy men are permanently assigned and will spend their entire tours on assignment.
Here’s a link to a video of Arlington Ladies explaining what they do and the feelings they experience.

There is a 1987 movie called GARDENS OF STONE (with James Caan and Anjelica Huston)... it is a movie set at Arlington National Cemetry....the movie is not about the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier or about Arlington, but rather all the characters are members of the Old Guard.
My wife is buried at Arlington, some day i will join her. The grave is across the highway from the 9/11 impact site of the Pentagon.
Well I can tell you if you have never been there be prepared because once you get onto the grounds tomb stones as far as you can see you really don’t release how many are resting there and the first time you see it can be overwhelming when you actually see how many have fought for our freedoms it really makes you think and that’s just the ones that made it back home
Hope you guys are alright? I heard about an explosion in Jersey, some flats were blown up. Praying 🙏🍀
It’s very cool that you both love it too!
I’m proud to be an American, I thank all the service members who have served our country so we can still be free!
Find the cost of freedom buried in the ground!
❤🥺 I love my country! Much respect.
❤️🇺🇸💝
You should watch Gods and Generals. A good movie starring Jeff Daniels.
I see there was an explosion at a block of flats on Jersey today. Hope you and yours are safe.
Just came here for the same reason, take care
Yep England just lost too.
Arlington national cemetery is about 10 mins outside of Washington DC so if u come I highly recommend u check it out
Oh thats the one I went to for my class field trip lol I didn't know it was called that I forget things like that a lot
Thank you for saying that I now know which one I went to
Arlington Virginia
I've seen it. I've heard them get pissed off at someone too.
Ex- Vn Era Combat Medic and Surgery Tech...Disabled veteran.. here...NOTICE !...the guard locked and loaded his M-14 after his second warning ! [ bullet in chamber ! ] He has full authority to shoot if, he deems it necessary under established strict rules of engagement.Disrespect and violations of the code of conduct will not be tolerated..Do so at your own risk ! Be very respectful around this shrine !
Still praying for Jersey 🙏💔 Love y'all
I actually got the chance of going to one of those tomb areas it was by Washington DC and I never knew about it in the past and the history of it when I watched the ceremony they did for an unknown soldier I really felt the sadness that happened for that person but also a little bit of happiness for the respect and dedication we did for these amazing ppl who sacrificed everything for peace and honor. It was a field trip basically a very special one for my school in middle school history class its an amazing trip where we go to Washington DC and go to the different historic places to learn and honor those ppl and monuments it was a very fun trip we stayed a few nights actually in the hotel with my classmates it was nice. I will never forget that wonderful trip I got to go on cause I dont get to travel that often I live in wisconsin and I never go out of it that often
You and Millie may not know this, but Arlington National Cemetery is located on the grounds of U.S. and Confederate General Robert E. Lee's home. Legend has it that a Union general whose son was killed by the Confederates during the war decided to use the grounds as a cemetery for Union dead so that the land could never be farmed again. that's just a legend, though. The land was chosen because of it's location. The land was originally bought by the U.S. at a tax lien sale. The land was returned to the Custis-Lee family by the Supreme Court when it was proven that the Federal government had refused to accept payment for the back taxes and then bought it at the lien sale. By then the land was a de facto graveyard and not good for anything else. The Custis-Lee family then sold it back to the government for approximately nine times what they had bought it for at the lien sale
You and Millie really should make a concerted effort to visit Arlington. I encourage you to not just watch the ceremony but to walk the grounds. There are many, many famous Americans buried there and if you're really, really lucky you might be able to watch a funeral. The military precision that the Old Guard puts on display at the Guard Ceremony is is also reflected by the Old Guard when performing a funeral. The last time I visited there we walked from the Lincoln Memorial across the Potomac and straight into the Cemetery. A long walk, but my knees were still in fairly good operating order at the time.
On another note, I watched the second half of the England-France match today. I am DEFINITELY NOT a fan of soccer. I find it to be boring and full of bad actors. I was rooting for England thanks to you guys and a couple of other U.K. YT channels I subscribe to. I was literally yelling at the TV when that last penalty kick sailed high and that shot in extra time skimmed over the crossbar. Either way, win or lose, it was a good excuse for you Brits to drink a pint or twenty.
The history of ANC isn't just legend. Quartermaster General Montgomery Meigs never liked Lee, and he was the one who's ordered burials on the property. When he discovered they were been buried away from the house, he demanded the new plots be placed next to the house. Both Meigs and his son are buried just behind the house.
I truly appreciate your admiration for my Country and our Tomb. Here is a link for a video where a Guard gets a bayonet dropped into his foot during an inspection: ua-cam.com/video/lxEi9eg44YU/v-deo.html
Just saw the news of the explosion in Jersey. Everyone ok?
lol at the zog bots
I think the "Tomb Walk" that path the watcher take should actually have burials beneath the concrete of any Tomb Soldier who went on to die and earn the right to be buried in Arlington on their own. I just think they have earned the Honor of being a Tomb Soldier without any of the work......my father could have been buried in Arlington if he wasn't literally living in four separate households in the three different cities in two states a thousand miles apart
Every Tomb Guard will tell you it's not about honoring themselves. It is about the Unknowns.
@@tommyodonnell9 yes but metaphorically they could keep guarding after they die. If the tomb was surrounded by the soldiers who spent their life guarding it I think would just be awesome
@@cindygr8ce There are a few buried in nearby sections.
Sorry your guys lost, I was rooting for them.
My Uncle was a vietnam veteran. He was a tank commander and he also trained dogs for cadaver searches, bomb searches etc. He was a purple heart recipient. When he died in 2015 we had him buried at Arlington. Unfortunately, his wife died 3 days after she found out that he had died (they were both in seperate hospitals, across the street from each other) when she had found out. We were able to have her cremated and her ashes put in his coffin. The head stone on one side reads his name the other and his beloved wife.
If a spouse dies before the service-member (and assuming the service-member is eligible for burial at Arlington) the stone marker contains the name, DOB & DOD plus the name and rank of the military spouse. When the military spouse dies and interred, the old stone is replaced with the service-member's data and the spouse's data on the reverse side.
In some cases you will see data of more than one spouse on the reverse....even children.
@@josephsoto9933 his wife wasn't a service member. His son died 3 years later as an adult, also not a service member. I was wondering if we could have his remains interred with them.
@@heatherhj2011 I seriously doubt it. The only way an adult child could qualify to be buried with the parent MIGHT BE if the adult child was SERIOUSLY dependent on the parent. For example....the child was severely handicapped. I am only speculating but knowing that the criteria for such an action (especially at Arlington) is extreme. Other National Military Cemeteries may be more tolerant, you would have to inquire.
@@josephsoto9933 yea he was he had MS but at this point I just need to get to D.C. and get things finalized.
@@heatherhj2011 good luck. I will be driving up to DC from Florida and visit my wife for Christmas. I normally do this during Thanksgiving but I was stuck in L.A. this year.
W France

How did he not ever hear of The Tomb Of The Known Soldier ? It's taught at every school in the U.S. I guess he slept through class that day ?
It definitely isn’t because I never learned about it at school.
Wrong
It is NOT taught in schools. Pathetic insult to Ethan.
@@tommyodonnell9 Where did y'all go to school at ?
@@sonsofthunder915 I would love to know what schools you think the Tomb is included in the curriculum.
i remember the nascar radioactive reactions bring em back react to 2019=8 daytona 500 radioactive plz its great
Still makes no sense how a "tomb" for somebody unknown can be "hallowed". Speaks a lot to how war minded our country has been. Theres large large cracks that have been poorly "repaired" on the tomb as well, further evidence that it wont last naywhere near as long as its builders intended. So replacement slabs would be needed sooner rather than later, especially if its severely damaged on the interior and down below. Also the "unknown" was chosen randomly from 4 exhumed corpses of American graves that were in France since the end of WW1. At. Random. I assume the rest were brought back to america and have been or will be properly identified eventually. The person interred, however, could have been anyone tbh. They could have been a normal soldier, or not at all, or maybe even somebody pretending to be a soldier ( less likely, but just saying). IT doesnt change the fact that this was all done willy nilly as a way to try to create a national identity through hollow means. And it seemed to be done on Indigenous land, so they kinda forced a Native American Chief/ leader to "sign off" their peoples approval for the endeavor. WHich feels wrong on many levels obviously. At least bring all the other unknowns from those graves over and identify them, or honor them the same if they are still over in France. Hell wheever they are, bring em back from Europe. They dna tested other "unknown" soldier before, thus it would at least be the right thing to do to find out whom those fallen soldiers were and give them proper burials and honors befitting their sacrifices. It would also answer questions their families no doubt had for generations about the whereabouts of their lost kin. We can do better by our fallen. We should do better.
🙄🙄🙄
Hahahahahahaha England LOST… 😅😂😆
Hit so hard like the Harry Khane PK!!!
its a disgrace the beesleys do not show any respect for soldiers from the uk too , shame on you.
Why would you make an ugly comment after something so touching? You missed the point. It is about self sacrifice, selflessness, respect. Does Britain have something similar? If so, I would definitely watch it with respect and interest.
Perhaps the most disrespectful comment I've seen on UA-cam in my many years using it. They said nothing disrespectful toward the UK. The video wasn't about the UK. The video was a memorial to fallen soldiers, but because you want it to be about the UK instead of America, you dishonor the memory of those heroes by making such a comment. You dishonor the UK by speaking in such a way, too.
@@joedavis2932we do have the tomb of he unknown warrior , its actually the first 1920 the tomb is in westminster Abbeyaid to rest amongst the Kings and rightly so .
@@claregale9011 Very cool. Thank you I will check it out .
@@joedavis2932 no worries 🙂
