    Arlington National Cemetary
    March 16, 2002

    Our troop went on a hike to Arlington National Cemetary as a part of the Hiking Merit Badge.  While on the hike, we also wanted to pay homage to our brave men and women who have so heroically protected our freedom and liberties throughout the years.  To honor our fallen defenders, we presented a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers.  The wreath presentation and the hike itself were a thought provoking and inspiring experience.  We hope that you enjoy the pictures below and that you are able to absorb some of the same experience that we did.
