America is world policeman.I dont hate USA,I dont hate anybody.The true is this,U go to fight in another country and now u crying on Arlington.

Why??? Why u sent ur army to fight on another country.Nouns come in US territory with army and tanks or f16.U said-al qaida come and u said about 11.07.

Alqaid is not country,they are group of terrorists.

Do Serbians do anything except put their hands out for help? We rescued you from the Nazis in WWII and we were asked to save you from killing yourselves more recently. Unfortunately we often find ourselves in the role of being asked for help by other countries. People from many less "successful" countries like to hate us because we have somethings that they don't have (freedom, a democratic government and individual wealth). You're right it's time we left you alone to kill each other. Thanks.

I can't stop crying after seeing this video. I cry for the proud and brave veteran who gave all for this country, I cry for the families and I cry for the future of this country under God. God Please Bless America. Again!

Their sacrifice enables you to spout your garbage

Maybe they'll find peace in the next life. Our politicians wouldn't let them have it in this one.

They forgot to mention that Arlington National Cemetery is on Robert E. Lee's former property. As the ultimate "Fuck you" to Lee, after the Civil War, Lincoln had the National Cemetery built on Lee's old property and house, which Lee loved so much. OWNED.

been at war for over a decade. i guess it will end after every american soldier is dead. this is a nightmare, hell we are living in

Here's the formula - more dead soldiers (tools) = more profits for the corporate interests investing in war!!

So all you tools just keep firing those bullets and missiles. Uncle Sam will be happy to send your family and friends

a hugely inflated bill for the costs! And they can pay for the funeral when your dead ass comes home in a casket!

FYI- No matter what they tell ya-the US has no plans to end the war-NONE! They're counting on a lot more of you

tools dyin so don't dissapoint!

I am one who is almost always stoic. I rarely show sorrow, and it is often hard for me to do so. However, this video, and simply seeing Arlington, even from the comfort of my own home, has brought me to tears. The men and women who have, and continue to, sacrifice their lives for us are too often forgotten. I simply wish that everyone who lives under our flag, and who is guarded by our military knew the sacrifices necessary to keep them, and their nation, safe. God bless. And thank you.

@FcK2420 Lol, yeah we are freer. Show me one nation that guarantees its citizens the rights we do in our Constitution, and maybe I'll begin to listen. You're such a clown.
