🇺🇸🇵🇪🇵🇷 I'm One of the lucky ones, I grew up I grew up in Bailey's Crossroads , Virginia. I have been to Arlington cemetery many times, For funerals and visits, Bob Crosby and I Stood for many hours as we waited there at the cemetery, As we watch John Kennedy be put to rest.. Anyone who visits Washington DC And goes to the Lincoln memorial should walk across the bridge to Arlington cemetery, Maybe they will appreciate their veterans more.. It's free you don't need an invitation... God-bless America 💖
As a Brit living in the USA, a place I Love very much. I think this Video should be viewed on every single USA tv channel, every cable channel, every single local station, and all at the same time! This great nation, needs to stop ripping its self Apart, and began again, understanding that the whole is far greater than the parts. God bless America.
Sad part is you know half of this country would call them a lot of unkind words. Even a direct suggestion with a 2x4 wont change their minds. That is the level of stupidity that has to be overcome. That takes war.
Freedom doesn't come without a HUGE HUMAN SACRIFICE. These are the true HEROES that no one ever heard about. May they Rest with their Respective God's. Because so many different religions served. Thank you all for your Ultimate Sacrifice for all of us is the US and the neighbor to tyour North, Canada. From a grateful daughter of a Canadian Military Veteran of 22 years. He served during the Cold War. Never Forgotten, Always Remembered with Dignity, Integrity, Respect, Love and Honour. From Ontario, Canada, Jenn. 💖💖🇨🇦
The people today who are vandalizing monuments and statues in the name of justice and equality need to see this video. We have to embrace and learn from our history, not to scrub it clean. That’s what makes America unique from other countries. I’ve always wondered why Confederate soldiers were also buried in Arlington, and I’ve learned so much from this video and have an even deeper respect for America and our history.
And yet the woke got that Confederate monument taken down. A monument to "reconciliation" was torn down and the graves around it were desecrated. I had to quit watching this video after seeing that monument.
@@billywild5440 an absolute disgrace. I am the great great grandson of a Union soldier who was a POW. That statue should be there so we remember our past. These cretins hate anything and everything American. They’d scrap all of Arlington if they truly had their way.
I visited Arlington in 1999 on a visit to America. I was struck with an overwhelming sense of respect and humility at what is represented there. It is only right and proper that we respect and say thankyou to our veterans who paid the ultimate price, I speak as an Englishman for my country and for the USA. I thank you for assistance as allies and pray that we may always be friends as peace loving nations. May God Bless America,
As a Canadian, I am as touched by the American history of the military as much almost as I am by our own Canadian. One of the deepest blessings God has bestowed on our two Countries is the closeness and strong Friendship we have. Grant that it lasts for eternity. Thank you and GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS.
I am too. I visited Arlington years ago. I'm the son of a WW2 Navy vet and the grandson of a WW1 Navy vet as well and the nephew of 8 Uncles who served in WW2 and Korea. God Bless their souls, to all of the men and woman who gave their lives for our freedoms.
I have made arrangement for my ashes to be interred there. A very special place and I know as a veteran I will be in the best of company. Also, my first ancestor in North American buried in the church cemetery at Yorktown Virginia, he arrived in 1680 and passed in 1703.
I had the the privilege and honour to visit Arlington in my vacation to America from Australia in September of 2019. I count this as one of the highlights of my trip.
Wow I'm absolutely speechless. The videos on this channel are amazing there a lot no words to describe it . I just cant believe, and I'm shocked no one is taking part in talking about this channel its contents or anything. A few likes and that's it . More then 226 people need to watch this because if not for our heritage , the cost paid in full and the heartaches that still are felt and paying to this day deserve better. We say nothing. I'm proud and I say thank you .
I think I am the one who is speechless. Your kind words and the fact that you took the time to express them mean more to us than you could know. And, you are right, these people who paid such a price are so amazing. We got to interview so many heroes and their families, and we were astounded most of all by their humility. In fact, many of the Medal of Honor recipients we talked to for the film on The Medal didn't even think what they did was special. I asked one man why in the world he dove on a live grenade (saving 5 fellow soldiers' lives) and he thought for a moment and then said "you would have done the same thing." What a humble, good man. I could tell you more stories, but based on your comment, you already get it, and probably know more than a few on your own. Thank you for your words - they are a real blessing.
Wow! I just noticed your comment. Thank you so much! There are so many great stories out there that people need to hear about the sacrifice and commitment that made America what it is today.
@@45north The best that I can do . . . in the presence of a Medal of Honor recipient, is go through the honorable motions of - 'Hand Salute . . . Ready Front' ! 🇺🇸
The first time I visited this most hallowed ground, America's most sacred of resting places, was in 2014. Whilst in my Civil Air Patrol uniform helping my colleagues during such a poignant day of laying wreaths to honor those whom having given all for our nation, I finally felt a sense of closure after 17 years. Over a decade and a half earlier my Grandmother Preusser had been interred alongside her husband my grandfather who fought in WW II, and yet my family didn't allow me to attend the funeral because they thought I'd be overwhelmed, but 17 years later I finally got to say my final farewells! Arlington isn't just a National Cemetery, it is a shrine, a cradle of our history, a place that tells of how America began 248 years ago and how far we've come as a country!!
This is a fantastic video. Unfortunately, the children today just don’t care. Look at what’s happening with cancel culture and woke bs. It’s all over! "God forgive them for they know not what they do’
It would be nice if our schools taught the basics in history. They tell our children that Columbus discovered that the world was round and He was the first Euorpean to North America. Neither is true, so you should show this to your own child and/or grandchild because our schools tell our children falsehoods.
Ditto the previous comments. These videos are timeless. In this time of insurrection, divisive politics, pandemic with the 500,000+ causalities and disillusionment with this great country your channel is needed more than ever. I hope you are able to continue teaching the American Ethic to the upcoming generations.
i am truluy devastated ... i just saw one of the headstones and read the name and find out that he was my drill instructor back in 1995 at parris island marine corp boot camp he was killed in 2005. RIP GYSGT TERRY BALL JR SEMPER FI YOU ARE TRULY A LOSS TO THIS NATION
♥️🇺🇲♥️ My gosh... To have seen your DI's headstone. With all of the different sites that cover our Arlington. It has to be hard knowing that he has passed away. His soul has gone to Heaven. My belief. Those that have served our country, all branches, have a place down the road waiting for them. I say this, so very sincere, thanking you for your service and love of our country. Both of my kids went through Parris Island also. Fond memories they have. For all who make the choice to protect our Constitution, I am forever grateful. I appreciate what you have done, protecting our Freedom. ♥️🇺🇲♥️
I have visited Alington five times always having a tear as I read the names, dates, and knowing they gave.up their contribution to their families generations for my privilege of living in prace and in our America.
I am a baby boomer born in 1951 to a very patriot dad who in WW2 was already in the army when Pearl Harbor was bombed. He then was sent to the Aleutians chain and from there to England and then to the stepping stones to Belgium and the Bulge.During the war he distinguish himself as being a good soldier and received many awards for his service. My pop was a patriot to the highest order and always told everyone he was proud of his service. My point is dad always told me and my sister to 1. Honor our God and 2. Honor our nation always. I know he would not be happy with the way things are in our nation today.We as patriot benefactors cannot let our families down or our nation down during this crucial time. Many of my family members have served
America became a superpower in 1945 and the American people have suffered greatly in military actions since then, with over 100,000 dead service men and women and 300,000 wounded. Being a superpower is not easy. You really have to admire the selfless commitment of the US military to their country.
This is very humbling to take in. Visiting here puts things more into perspective. I know about most of these men, but until watching this I had not heard the rest of their stories. I wish I would have watched this before visiting. Rest In Peace Warriors!
Very well presented. All headstones have a story and purpose and though all cannot be profiled, I was hoping to see a piece on Robert Dean Stethem born 4 days after me. I remember the time he was killed with grieving parents and news coverage. Time has moved on but his courage and sacrifice are not forgotten. I surely will visit his grave the next time I am at Arlington.
Thank you for making this .. my Mother's Father my Grandfather, Raymond L Buddington, a Veteran of WWII, Korea, and Viet Nam is buried at Arlington. One day, I will be there also, the only one of his Gradchildren to have not only served in the Military but also in combat, Again thank you for this video..
Love this video. So much history and so much respect for all who severed or worked there. My grandfather is laid to rest at Arlington and I'm looking forward to visit very soon. Thank u for sharing this amazing video, and it's a great history lesson🇺🇸🇺🇸
I've been to Arlington twice. Once to bury a WW II submarine sailor and friend He had people from all over the world come to his ceremony. The second time to bury a personal friend and fellow Sub sailor a few years later in freezing weather but I was proud to be there for him. Hand Salute to both!
It is flawed, do you buy that Gen. George Marshall was the only military person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize? Look into and see it is the youngest ever president, probably our most badass president Theodore Roosevelt who was awarded both the Nobel Peace Prize and the Medal of Honor. Check that out please...1868-1919 Theodore Roosevelt, as smart as Jefferson, he served his country in so many manners!
Ellison Onizunka is buried in his home state in the National Ceremetary of the Pacific in Hawaii, the punch bowl. Ernie Pyle, world war 2 correspondent who wrote of GI Joe as he covered the Italian campaign and was killed covering the battle Akinawa, buried in the Punch Bowl as well. They are not far from each other.
I remember being in NJROTC in high school and visiting Arlington Cemetery. It was one of those places where you feel a sense of pride and love of country when viewing the graves and The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. It's very moving and truly sacred place.
This is all the loved one's that are left behind. War is not the answer. Life is ?all the children .wife's mom's dad's grandparents ❤that miss these loved ones all of you be in God's love and care.you all have gave so much ❤♥💖💗💕💙
It's sad that many visitors go to the known graves when in fact it is the rows of the regular graves that contain the real hero's. One day I hope to visit Arlington and I know I will be humbled by what I see.
Perry . . . what a historical, immemorial feat. Accomplished - being recognized . . . long after one's passed, with reburial . . . at Arlington National Cemetery ! 😎🇺🇸
Arlington is hallowed ground it is here our heroes rest. Every soldier from every war is buried here, Kennedy is buried here, Gunny Ermey is buried here, the remains of Apollo 1, Challenger, and Columbia are buried here, Bradley is buried here, and many famous people are buried on these grounds. This is Arlington America's sacred and hallowed burial ground.
There are cemeteries in other countries. I visited in a large beautiful cemetery in Italy. Definitely Holy Ground and very surreal. Was with a tour group of 40 and no one spoke except in whispers as we read the monuments. Bus was silent all the way to our hotel. Very sad and heart wrenching experience.
You should visit the American Cemetery in the Philippines. It's in the heart of Manila's modern skyscrapers. There's other 2 Cemeteries in Clark and Iloilo City. Gone but not forgotten. Pls. do take time to visit them. We honor them and never forget the sacrifice and the promise they made for our freedom..."I shall return. "
Although associated with Robert E. Lee, the original owner and builder of Arlington House George Washington Parke Custis intended the house to be a memorial to George Washington, and filled it with his collection of Washington memorabilia. I imagine he would be very happy that his farm and house are now a national cemetery dedicated to those who fought to protect the democracy Washington helped establish.
To all the Men and Women I would like to say thank you for your service and welcome home and for the ones who made the ultimate sacrifice for our Freedom and our Country you shall never be forgotten may they RIP
@@conniewaldby5524 Except presidents are civilians and are not members of the military. Question about General Bradley asked who is the highest ranking (military) officer buried at ANC.
When I lived near DC I used to visit Arlington Cemetery very often. It is a solemn place and my heart ached for the men there in thousands of graves. I was always interested in visiting the graves of Medal of Honor recipients. I was a Marine in the 60s and I spent a lot of time at the grave of Ira Hayes, one of the Marines who raised the flag on Iwo Jima. Also, the grave of Audie Murphy. I'm old now (77) and my health has failed and I'm an invaled. If I were still able I would make an annual pilgrimage to Arlington Cemetery to stand at the resting place of American warriors who made the ultimate sacrifice.
As an American I am so proud of my country even though not perfect and there are those here trying to destroy it. I am forever grateful and indebted to those who serve and served and those who gave the ultimate sacrifice defending our great country. Thanks to all of you. Also would like to know who would give a thumbs down to this video. They are sorry communist peice of shit and don't deserve to set foot in this country.
Arlington an National Treasure. It’s interesting to note that Arlington and Arlington House was the ancestral home of Robert E. Lee and his family. We are tearing down Confederate statues or anything that reminds us of slavery. Arlington is revered as it should be.
Too bad so many citizens of this great country today are filled with hatred and blame rather than respect and loyalty. February 21, 2021, the year America died.
It was Jan. 6, 2021, the stupid gullible folks egged on by a guy who called our military folks "chumps", dodged the draft, and bullied so many, had so many connections with Putin and his gangsters with our rival...Russia! ..
I HONOR OUR MILITARY SERVICE MEN AND WOMEN THAT GAVE THEIR LIVES FOR OUR FREEDOMS TODAY AND YESTERDAY THANK GOD AND YOU. ARMY VETERAN ANNA MARIA FRAZIER DANGERFIELD
I love Arlingron, and feel moved by it. Even just viewing photos . But also realize that for every single in there, at least1 5 other headstones of service persons that are scattered across the nation and other countries. Mostly are at cemeteries that were made because that is where large a group of them died in a battle. That is a great, but tragic story of love.
Maybe you miss the point. They are still fighting for rights as you see they are laud next to slaves the confederates as well as highly honored. If it wasnt fior Black men ww1 and then the white nam tiik put the Tulsa massacre. Black wall street. They were republicans cars pwn shiopsbanks cars dressed to the nines.
And white man took out the whole town. As with the japanese war. It was a Navajo that allowed up to win that war. . Black man seems ti be wven mite decorated i being a white am ashamedn a
We now have enemies within our citizens and government died to protect us from. It is Marxism aka communism. They are killing us not with bullets but With a million paper cuts.

This needs to be taught in EVERY school nationwide.
There was atime when it was. We called it citizenship.
I'm afraid they won't teach this anymore. They are too busy trying to groom our kids for Socialism and transgenderism.
Only the truth should be taught in schools.
as a canadian i ofton think where would the world be without the american soldiers man and woman THANK YOU & GOD BLESS YOU ALL
As an American, I say to you thank you for standing with us in good and bad times for who are we without friends.

Thank you Sir.
As an American veteran I am proud to have such an amazing neighbor as Canada!

We're they honored . . . with burial at a Veterans Cemetery ? 🇺🇸

AMEN this is where I want to lay my body with my Brothers and Sisters of which I love.
Beautiful documentry the voice storyteller pulls me into the story
How beautiful so sad so many died to let others have freedom x
Beautiful video every American should see this

John Kennedy - 'I could stay here, forever' ! How symbolic . . . . . .
Also ironic is that many people think the government was behind the assassination.

I think this should be showed in every school including colleges to show the price that was paid for our freedoms.
Whoagh! Great doc. Add caps.
Well done!
Although associated with Robert E. Lee, the original owner and builder of Arlington House George Washington Parke Custis intended the house to be a memorial to George Washington, and filled it with his collection of Washington memorabilia. I imagine he would be very happy that his farm and house are now a national cemetery dedicated to those who fought to protect the democracy Washington helped establish.
To all the Men and Women I would like to say thank you for your service and welcome home and for the ones who made the ultimate sacrifice for our Freedom and our Country you shall never be forgotten may they RIP
I always pause it to see the names on the headstones.......I remember !!
HUFF - a gem, of steel ! 🇺🇸
Bravemen and women God Bless
Simply incredible. Thank you for sharing this production. Question, wouldn't General Bradley be the highest ranking officer buried at Arlington?
Well . . . being of 5 star rank, that could/would be an automatic YES ! 🇺🇸
George C. Marshall and Henry "Hap" Arnold were also five-star generals and both are buried at Arlington.
As Commander in Chief, Presidents Taft and Kennedy are senior rank.
@@conniewaldby5524 Except presidents are civilians and are not members of the military. Question about General Bradley asked who is the highest ranking (military) officer buried at ANC.
Marshall by date of rank

The beauty of the meaning behind Arlingron Cemetary...
Without eyes - I would have seen it.
Thank you very much from Spain 😌☀️🌟
Are any Code Talkers buried at Arlington?
Excellent documentary.

Wonderful tribute !!!
When I lived near DC I used to visit Arlington Cemetery very often. It is a solemn place and my heart ached for the men there in thousands of graves. I was always interested in visiting the graves of Medal of Honor recipients. I was a Marine in the 60s and I spent a lot of time at the grave of Ira Hayes, one of the Marines who raised the flag on Iwo Jima. Also, the grave of Audie Murphy. I'm old now (77) and my health has failed and I'm an invaled. If I were still able I would make an annual pilgrimage to Arlington Cemetery to stand at the resting place of American warriors who made the ultimate sacrifice.
Every American student must see this film ... often.
Excellent Video
R.I.P.
It is so disrespectful for the soldiers who show respect to all these in the graves to be disrespected. This should not be allowed.
As an American I am so proud of my country even though not perfect and there are those here trying to destroy it. I am forever grateful and indebted to those who serve and served and those who gave the ultimate sacrifice defending our great country. Thanks to all of you. Also would like to know who would give a thumbs down to this video. They are sorry communist peice of shit and don't deserve to set foot in this country.
This is where I will be laid to rest.
Arlington an National Treasure. It’s interesting to note that Arlington and Arlington House was the ancestral home of Robert E. Lee and his family. We are tearing down Confederate statues or anything that reminds us of slavery. Arlington is revered as it should be.
Too bad so many citizens of this great country today are filled with hatred and blame rather than respect and loyalty. February 21, 2021, the year America died.
I feel the same way. They take everything for granted instead of remembering how they got here.
It was Jan. 6, 2021, the stupid gullible folks egged on by a guy who called our military folks "chumps", dodged the draft, and bullied so many, had so many connections with Putin and his gangsters with our rival...Russia! ..
I HONOR OUR MILITARY SERVICE MEN AND WOMEN THAT GAVE THEIR LIVES FOR OUR FREEDOMS TODAY AND YESTERDAY THANK GOD AND YOU. ARMY VETERAN ANNA MARIA FRAZIER DANGERFIELD
Thank you
I have several friends in this cemetery. I still can not bring myself to visit yet.
Proud to be a friend of America
Cancel culture WILL never be excepted at these sacred grounds .
My deepest sympathies and grief. Navy Davy 🇺🇸🇺🇸
I love Arlingron, and feel moved by it. Even just viewing photos . But also realize that for every single in there, at least1 5 other headstones of service persons that are scattered across the nation and other countries. Mostly are at cemeteries that were made because that is where large a group of them died in a battle. That is a great, but tragic story of love.

Historically AMAZING women wasp.

My ancestor was the first military person buried in Arlington. His name is William Christman.
This is why we should all stand for the National anthem and NOT take a knee.

Maybe you miss the point. They are still fighting for rights as you see they are laud next to slaves the confederates as well as highly honored. If it wasnt fior Black men ww1 and then the white nam tiik put the Tulsa massacre. Black wall street. They were republicans cars pwn shiopsbanks cars dressed to the nines.

Have we become the nation these people died for?
We now have enemies within our citizens and government died to protect us from. It is Marxism aka communism. They are killing us not with bullets but
With a million paper cuts.
