Autumn is a time of remembering those who are not with us any more. Therefore, we set off to a place of reverence, to a place which celebrate their heroism. The place we visit today is Arlington National Cemetery. Over 400 thousand soldiers are buried there who fought in the Civil War, the Great War, the WWII, the war in Korea, Vietnam, Iran and Afghanistan as well as many other heroes who fought and died for their country. In this monumental cemetery, lies President John Fitgerald Kennedy with his brother and wife, and President William Howard Taft.
