My grandfather is buried there. He was a Rear Admiral in the Navy in WW II . He also recieved the Medal of Honor. His name is Thomas John Ryan Jr. Aug.5 1901-Jan.28,1970

Watching the guard at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier always gives me the chills!

We watched the guard at the Tomb Of The Unknown Soldier for quite some time while we were there. It was fascinating to watch his precision in his movements.

They have a training video on what these soldiers go through for the unknown soldiers! It's military all the way!

It is the most spectacular place i have ever been to and i am proud to call it the final resting place of my father, who was interred in Columbarium Court 9 this past summer. Thank you for these videos there. Really makes me emotional watching.

I was able to see the changing of the guard a couple of years ago, it is very humbling. The time and effort And training that they have to go through to be a guard is amazing.

Arlington demands much to explore, but you get out what you put in. History is all around you, etched in stone, one name at a time. I’ve been three times and I still haven’t visited everyone I wanted to! Oh, the Tomb Guard? That is the most honored ritual - The Walk. 21 paces up the mat, pause for 21 seconds. Turn to face the Tomb, pause for 21 seconds. Turn, shoulder arms so the rifle is between the Tomb and the crowds, pause 21 seconds. Walk down the mat 21 steps. Repeat. The guard is changed on the hour in winter, half hour in the summer. No more honored post then to guard the Unknowns for no honor is so great than to give all - life and identity - in service.

Well stated. Have always wanted to see it in person, but I don't get to travel much. I can imagine if I did get to see it in person it would bring tears to my eyes. Very emotional.

Impressive isn't it? I never failed to be amazed by the ceremony involved! What I detest is when people try to disrupt this time honored tradition!!!

Interesting fact: legendary group The Four Tops were supposed to be on the ill fated Pan Am flight 103: they were touring in Europe and were scheduled to be on that flight to return to the USA for Christmas; However due to a prolonged recording session and a performance on a British TV show they overslept and missed the plane.

I have been in this cemetery more times than I can count and I have never grown tired of it. So much history and so many stories can be found in these hallowed grounds. I hope you got to experience ft he changing of the guard at the tomb of the unknown. Everything the 3rd Guard does is absolutely outstanding.

That rose quartz headstone was gorgeous! I wasn't sure if anyone else saw it, too.

Arlington is such a beautiful place. So impressive. Thanks for posting Jordan. I loved it.

Maureen O'Hara is there too. The cemetery is awe inspiring. Thank you for documenting as much as you did.

Thank you for bringing to us the graves of war heroes and celebrities at Arlington Cemetery that we rarely get to see. When you 1 day get back, Colonel L. Fletcher Prouty is buried there. He was the Mr.X character from the movie JFK. Chief of Special Ops. Kennedy administration.

I was moved by the Memorial to the Unknown Soldiers of the Civil War as well as the tribute to those lost in the Lockerbie tragedy. Nice to see the memorials for the crews of Challenger and Columbia, too. Pleased that the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is always protected. Thank you for taking us with you on your visit to Arlington, Jordan. Great vlog.

My hat is off to you Jordan for doing a other great vlog of this place. Glad you went by Audie Murphy's gravesite his hometown is only a couple of hours from me. Another great vlog as always Jordan . Take care buddy.

Thank you sooo much for taking us here! As an 8 y/o D.C. girl I attended Joe Louis’ funeral with my late Godfather. At the wake, Sugar Ray Leonard, who grew up in Maryland, stood by his casket shaking the hand of everyone who walked by. I still remember Muhammad Ali waving as he entered his limousine for the ride to Arlington cemetery. We caught the then new Metro, DC’s subway, to Arlington cemetery, but could get nowhere near Louis’ gravesite. Your Vlog was my first view.🙏🏾🙏🏾

Went to the tomb of unknown on our school trip and was there for changing of the guard. That is something I will always remember.

That was just so moving. The Unknown Soldier, my heart wept, I can't imagine being there. The the large, tomb with all the bones from the men of the Civil War. All the dedicated tributes, like the space shuttles & airplane crash...💔. Jordan, thank you for the very special vlog. 🇺🇸❤️🦅

This was so beautiful and moving to see. It's a lovely place for them to rest in. Thank you for going there and showing it to us. I would never have been able to see it otherwise. May all that rest there rest in peace. Stay safe and take care Jordan.

Excellent decision to show this video today on Dec 7th, another day in History that should always be remembered.

I remember the space shuttle Columbia breaking apart over our house. At first I didn't know what it was. Then later parts of it were found in our surrounding area. This was over Texas. Such a sad and somber day.

Jordan, it was neat that you found the grave of Floyd Bennett who is from my hometown, Warrensburg in theAdirondacks of upstate NY. There’s a bandstand in the north part of town, dedicated to Floyd Bennett. Thanks for filming that.

I found this emotional. I guess anyone who goes through war has my high regard. Loved the out of the way monuments you showed. If you ever go back you might like to attend the changing of the guard at the tomb of the unknown soldier. It's a very high honor and they have to go through alot of training . God bless you Jordan

Been there about 3 times. It's an amazing place. Seeing the changing of the guard is just awe inspiring. And to see the soldier march around his path guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is something I can watch for hours. And, the grave of Lee Marvin!!!! You are so right....a Man's Man. They don't make them like that in Hollywood these days.

Love this latest series of vids Jordan! You are the best! We keep you in our playlist. We are huge fans!👍🏻😊

I'm so happy you stumbled on the Glenn Miller memorial. Love his music.

Thank you Jordan for these two beautiful Arlington Cemetery Vlogs.

Have also been to this cemetery, incredible place to visit, such an honor to be amongst such hero’s ty Jordan 🤗

You need to come back to Iowa and visit Glen Miller’s birth place in Clarinda. Also, the Kate Shelly Bridge & Mamie Eisenhower’s birth place in Boone. Keep up the great work Jordan!

Hello Jordan thank for such an awesome video, I really enjoyed this video and once again thank you for all you do.

I absolutely loved this one 😍 thank you brother ❣️

We were there in 1981. Our then 8 year old son disappeared when we were there. He got back on the tram we took to get there and was back at the beginning of our tour. Scary. Thanks for all these. A lot we didn't see.

Thanks for uploading..another interesting vlog ...

Really interesting thanks Jordan for another excellent blog❤️❤️

I'm so glad you've made this vlog . I'd love to visit Arlington . ☆☆☆☆☆

Thanks kiddo. It was a pleasure. Say hi to the little guy for me.

Thank you very My Jordan these videos are Great

Have visited Arlington twice and did not know all the famous people and facts you provided. Respected and well presented.

A childhood friend of mine lost her father in the Pan Am 103 flight. If he didn't take that early flight to be home for xmas, he would be alive. I have been to Arlington, it is so moving and educational. It was during a middle school field trip and we saw changing of the guard. So beautiful.

Thank you Jordan that was awesome

Many times been there very touching Thanks sharing Jordan

I hope you go back to Arlington again soon! Great Vlogs you are doing!

That was a beautiful sentiment

Didn't know that about pappy. I read his book, and have seen several videos about him. Of course " bad baa black sheep/ black sheep squadron"

This was an interesting experience Jordan. I always knew Lee Marvin , (Cat Baloo loved him in that movie) was buried with his WW2 commerades . But boy did Hollywood kick up a tizzy , when they wanted him buried with the stars 🌟 literally. And he was next to Joe Louis , how ironic I guess Lee Marvin funny man got the last laugh after all . Thanks for the tour it was great.

Jordan these vlogs at ANC are beautiful. You do a really superb job.

Thanks for taking me my knees are shot!

Really enjoyed this vlog Jordan...bless them all and bless you...happy holidays!

Your Christmas tree is actually the recovered mast from the USS Maine which blew up in Havana Cuba. That mast is the monument to those who died in that explosion.

Fantastic story wonderful presentation. I have a friend of mine who’s buried there brigadier general Thomas Riley he was in charge of Camp Pendleton here in California and also supervisor of fifth district in Santa Ana. Wonderful man and his wife Emma Jean. Maybe both rest in peace

Very nice vlog Jordan!

Love this❤ Thank you jordan

A FRENCHY SAID....MERCI !!! jordan the lion...

The other Cenotaph of Glenn Miller is in Grove St Cemetery, New Haven.

That was just great! Take care❤

That was fantastic! Hey Jordan I figured out that your dog`s name is Jah. Jah is God and dog spelled backwards is God! Very clever!

Super great vlog I hope you go back there soon

Thanks, another classic vlog!

HEY, JORDAN &} JAH Hello guys !

I went to DC this summer for 2 days and 1 night. I wish we had the time to go here. I went when I was in middle school but it's not the same going to DC as an adult.

I love this Vlog

I’m still trying to play catch-up watching your Vlogs. I’ve been there more times than I can count, and I’m going to be interred there when it’s my time. Might as well hang out with the best of the best for eternity.

It’s odd to say but I’ve always found a peacefulness when I visit Arlington. My maternal grandparents and great-grandparents are there. I also had the honor of laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier once.

Thanks lionheart peaceout...🥰

Another great adventure of Arlington Nat’l Cemetery. I can never get tired of seeing the places where heroes rest eternally. 🙏🇺🇸❤️

Jonathan White, son of Bewitched actor David White ( Dareen’s boss Larry Tate) was one of those lost on Pan Am 103, urn is with his father’s in David’s Mitch.

Such an interesting second visit. Interesting about Glen Miller as his plane was presumed lost in the English Channel not that far from where I live in Sussex U.K. This cemetery is certainly something to be seen. I may go one day. It’s in my bucket list. I feel sorry for the lone soldier on guard duty marching up and down all day. I wonder how many hours he has has to do that? Very good video Jordan and thanks for taking us all along.

In the Summer, the Tomb Guard marches for 30 minutes. In the Winter, one hour. At night 2 hours. He shares the 24 hour shift with 4-5 other guards.

Wow.. a piece of history that deserve to visit , if I Remember correct Tom Hanks do a movie in this cemetery. Saving Private Ryan

it is nice to see all the famous people buried there but i would love to see all the real shoulders that were not famous

David White's son Jonathan was killed on Flight 103. David White was the actor who played Larry Tate on Bewitched.

Thank You Jordan! Happy Monday 😊

I was wondering if you've ever done a vlog at Rosecrans National Cemetary in San Diego? Jimmy Thach is buried there.

Go look up R Lee Ermey,he is a well known Marine and is buried there

Thanks Jordan. :)

Claire Lee Chenault of the Flying Tigers & 14th air force

Audie Murphy acted and starred in the movie about his life "To hell and Back"

Hi Jordan, wow, that Amphitheatre is stunning, it's a beautiful cemetery. All those hero's buried there, I take my hat off to all of them. You just don't know who you are walking past sometimes in cemeteries and whether they have a great history, do you. Great vlog Jordan.

RESPECT STYLE

We stand on the shoulders of giants. God bless America, my home sweet home. Beautiful video.
