Wreath laying, Arlington National Cemetery, December 11, 2010

I think the images speak for themselves.















































The following were the most difficult to take, from the "new" section where loved ones were placing personal gifts of love to those that would never again make it home for the holiday.














Here a mother sits in front of her Marine Corp son. Simply awful.

  1. Powerful photos Kelvin. I scrolled down and my eyes welled up with tears when I saw the Cowboy sweatshirt, then the two Captains buried together as they died together and then the mother sitting in a chair. I can hardly see the screen now. My heart breaks for all their families.

  3. Yea, Joanne. Me too. I usually avoid that section for that very reason.
