QuoteSgt. Eric McGuire, Tomb Sentinel, Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, 3d U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard), places a rose at each of the four crypts of the Unknowns during his last walk ceremony, Apr. 14, in Arlington National Cemetery, Va. Placing a rose at the foot of each crypt signifies a Sentinels' last and final honor before they leave the Tomb. McGuire served at the Tomb for 27 months and will report to the Joint Staff Military Security Force at the Pentagon for his next assignment. (U.S. Army photo by Spc. Klinton Smith)
