There are millions of people who have sacrificed their lives in order to defend and support the basic principles and values that make life as we know it possible. Those persons all deserve nothing but everybody’s respect and appreciation.
However, it’s easy to forget about the proper way these women and men deserve to be honored. Luckily, there are also those who make it their jobs to remind other people that they should show respect.
The images below were recorded at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery, a place where people can go to in order to pay a silent respect to the unknown heroes who served the American flag and who sacrificed their lives in combat.
The video captures the moment an Army guard hears disrespectful chatter and laughter that is extremely inappropriate for a place like this, and decides to take action to put an end to the foul behavior.
The man surely managed to make the people who were engaging in the conversation understand they should stop their chatter and do what they came there to do, and that is to pay their respects to American service members who have died without having their remains identified.
