Every time I try to tell some one about this I choke up. My eyes started to well as I read it again to post it here. The have my full respect.

Arlington tomb sentinels shun shelter

ARLINGTON, Va., Sept. 19 As the winds from Hurricane Isabel swept over Arlington National Cemetery, the soldiers who guard the Tomb of the Unknowns were given for the first time in history permission to abandon their posts and seek shelter. They told us that. But thats not whats going to happen, said Sgt. Christopher Holmes, standing vigil on overnight duty. Thats never an option for us. It went in one ear and right out the other.

There was a long thread on the Honor Guard here at ArmyRanger.com about a year ago. I think one of our registered members was on the Honor Guard as well. They do their nation proud.
