A sailor and a woman stand together before the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery, a setting that draws visitors seeking a quiet moment of remembrance. The tomb holds the remains of an unidentified American service member from World War I, with later crypts added for the Korean and Vietnam conflicts, and its guard changes have become one of the nation's most recognized ceremonies. Memorial Day, when the photograph's theme of mourning and honor fits most naturally, is a day when many families and service members make the same pilgrimage to the white marble monument on the hill above the Potomac.
