On this day in history, November 11, 1921, Tomb of Unknown Soldier is dedicated at Arlington National Cemetery<\/strong><\/p>\n

The United States Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was dedicated at Arlington National Cemetery \u2014 following a reverential selection process that spanned the Atlantic Ocean \u2014 on this day in history, Nov. 11, 1921. <\/p>\n

The remains of the American hero buried beneath the tomb was chosen from thousands of unidentified doughboys killed in World War I and buried in France. <\/p>\n

\u201cHere rests in honored glory an American Soldier, Known but to God,\u201d reads the inscription on the marble tomb.<\/p>\n

Crypts for Unknown Soldiers from World War II and Korea were added in 1958. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is Arlington National Cemetery\u2019s most iconic memorial,\u201d according to the U.S. Army\u2019s online cemetery education program. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt has stood at the heart of the cemetery, serving as a site for reflection on service, valor and sacrifice \u2026 The Unknowns represent all unidentified service members who gave their lives for the United States.\u201d<\/p>\n

Among the purposes of the tomb: to help give comfort to the thousands of American families who never knew the fate of their loved ones lost overseas. Instead, they can know that their loved ones\u2019 sacrifices are remembered by the nation. <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s an interesting video on the tomb and those who guard it.<\/p>\n\n
