For over 58 years, soldiers from the 3d U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) have honored our nation’s fallen heroes by placing U.S. flags at gravesites for service members laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery and the U.S. Soldiers’ and Airmen’s Home National Cemetery prior to the Memorial Day weekend.
Today, May 26, 2022, soldiers, as well as service members from the Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard, placed flags in front of over 250,000 headstones and at the bottom of about 7,000 niche rows.
