Any particular reason you chose the photo of Adam changing the guard?
If you mean for the thumbnail…I felt it was the best one that represented what we made for the video. Do you know him? That’s kinda cool 🙂
@@WalkwithHistory Yes, very well. SSG Adam Dickmyer, TGIB #528. Adam eventually became a Relief Commander, and was the lead on Senator Kennedy's casket team. After The Old Guard he became a Platoon Sergeant in the 101st Airborne (Air Assault). Adam was KIA in Kandahar on 28 October 2010. He is buried in Section 60.
Adam was truly a good man and excellent Soldier.
Thank you so much for sharing that with me. Honored to hear that story and to hopefully help others remember those like Adam.
@@WalkwithHistory Was a nice surprise to see you using his photo.

I first visited Arlington National Cemetery in the summer of 2015. One of my highlights was visiting the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. To keep this short, as a disabled veteran watching the changing of the guard ceremony, I had a lump in my throat & tears in my eyes as I was so proud to be among our Nation's most honored dead. Everyone I met was so respectful and helpful. The grounds were so clean and quiet that I couldn't hear my breathing. As the commentator had mentioned, taking the tram was a good idea as the cemetery is too large to see every section in one visit. Enjoy 🇺🇸🇺🇸❤
Thank you so much for sharing that. It is truly a place we are honored to visit.
Great tips. Changing of the guard would be the big one i want to see
I said it before and like a broken record or a clock (correct twice a day) I will say again. We enjoy the interaction with the three kids. They are growing so fast. Cheers 🍻.
Awww. Thank you! We are happy that they get to be a part of these. 😊
Visited Arlington back in 2017 and want to go back again as I have worked with a former Sgt. of the Tomb Guards, he was there during the Reagan years.
Wow! Yes there are many things to see over the course of many visits. 😊
I have been to Washington DC a number of times and would like to add a few extra tips that weren't covered here. My First tip would be that while there are 400,000 Graves more people are being buried in the cemetery while it sounds obvious if you see a burial ceremony going on stay a distance and salute respectfully. Secondly for anyone visiting with autism or sound sensitivity keep in mind that you may hear Rifle fire during a funeral ceremony. I suggest keep ear plugs on hand if not used to loud noises. With the Tomb of the unknown soldier close by remember to remain silent,don't cross any barriers regardless of how much you want to get a closer look and keep your children from causing horseplay, The Sentinels who guard the tomb take their duty serious. Lastly don't bring food or drink with you to the tomb of the unknown soldier or if you do keep items in your backpag,purse etc. The Sentinels don't want the risk of waste being left behind while on guard.
That’s great advice! Thank you 😊
Excellent points. Food isn't allowed in the Cemetery, but ANC does encourage visitors to bring water, particularly during the summer. Not unusual to have people falling out at the Tomb, just not prepared for the heat and humidity.
Nice
Thank you! 😊
I have now watched several of ypur videos . I respect that you treat the graves and people with dignity. I admire that.
Always. They deserve respect and to never be forgotten. I feel honored to tell their stories. Thank you for watching.
Well done!
Thank you! 😊
Scott and Jenn, thank you for this insight. Great job.
Thank you! And thanks for watching as always. 😊
Everyone in America needs to visit Arlington at least once!! There you will see the TRUE COST OF FREEDOM! If you have the smallest heart you will walk away a different person!
Absolutely true!!! It’s a must visit for every American.
@@WalkwithHistory They walk the the 21 steps back and forth no matter the weather 24-7-365 !!! What an honor it was to watch the changing of the guard . How the precision and honor THE OLD GUARD gives these heroes known only to GOD !
I watched it with tears streaming down my face !
Then to see the thousands of white crosses and Stars of David where like I said the TRUE PRICE OF FREEDOM is buried in this hallowed ground ! They gave it all for "MY" freedom !
Excellent video. I visited there back in March - first time I had gone in years. Agreed with you about the tram, fantastic way to hit the "highlights".
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for this, I will be visiting Arlington for the first time soon and this is so helpful! ✌️
Awesome! So happy to hear it. 😁🙌🏻
Looks like such a beautiful place. I am always fascinated by your videos from Arlington. I don't know that I will ever get to visit but thank you for the tips. I didn't realize it was so hilly! Always good to see your family enjoying and learning together. Hugs!
Thank you! Yes it is fun to keep the kids involved. Hopefully they will look back on these videos one day and smile. 😊
My husband served as a sentinel so I got to visit the cemetery often. It's a beautiful space.
Amazing! Yes it is quite a beautiful place…we do love going there. 😊
I thought all the gravestones were all alike I noticed in the video that they're not just didn't realize that great video and you're teaching your kids respect well done
Thank you. 😊 Yes many of the older gravestones are very different…our other videos show some them them in better detail. Thank you for watching!
At one time families were permitted to purchase their own stones, and they were limited to a few sections. That practice was stopped some years ago. Only regulation stones now.
My father is buried there. Please dont climb on trees. I agree that people want visitors but its not a playground to run and climb in. Its a place to honor and remember. In the Welcome center they don’t even allow people to sit on the floor as that’s disrespectful.
Thank you for the comment. We did learn that afterwards and won’t let our kids do that again. Thank you for your father’s service. 😊🙏🏻
A tribute to your father 🫡 ❤🙏Salute to The USA 🫡🇺🇸
向您的父亲致敬🫡❤向美国致敬🇺🇸🫡
Thank you for the tips! The last time I was there was in the spring of 1964! JFK’s grave had the eternal flame and a snow fence around it!
Oh my! What a time to be there. It certainly is a special place and I’m glad to hear you got to visit. 😊
I have visited and photographed 376 of the 413 Medal of Honor recipients laid at rest there, also a good many others
Awesome. That is dedication. 🤘
Can you tell me if James Stewart is buried this Cemetery?
He’s not. He is buried in Los Angeles in the same Cemetery as John Wayne.
John Basilone
Medal of Honor recipient 😊 Thank you for watching!
What gravesite would you want to visit?
First and foremost, the grave of JFK, then make my way to where R.Lee is laid to rest.
Have to agree with Ray. JFK and REL, then just walk until I can’t no more.
@@Chevyguy-Ray Those are great ones. Love it! 😁❤️
@@GpaEric5931 So much to walk and see there! Great choice 😊😁🙌🏻
After watching your videos, JFK is obvious, but now it is Maureen O'Hara
My step father is buried here I am disabled can I drive to his grave site
I wondered who had access to drive in Arlington. That makes sense. I am sorry for your loss and thank you for your sacrifice. We are grateful. ♥️🇺🇸
