A solider from the 3rd US Infantry Regiment, 'The Old Guard,' places flags at grave sites during the 'Flags-In' ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia, on May 22, 2014. A small US flag was placed one foot in front of more than 220,000 graves in the cemetery to mark Memorial Day.

Thank you. This is a great reminder of my own past. So many friends died, I don't even know the total number of people I served with that died.

Thank you. None of my friends joined to be remembered. It was just what we felt was right. I never wanted to be acknowledged. I just wanted to do my job and let it be.
