Rows to Remember

A soldier helps place U.S. flags at every gravesite at Arlington National Cemetery, Va., as part of Flags In, an annual pre-Memorial Day tradition, May 26, 2022. More than 1,000 service members placed flags at more than 250,000 headstones and at the bottom of about 7,000 niche rows at Arlington National Cemetery and the U.S. Soldiers’ and Airmen’s Home National Cemetery to honor the nation’s fallen heroes.
