Wonderful Arlington tour
This was an amazing experience. Our guide James was absolutely wonderful. Besides being a retired history teacher, he knew so much about the arlington cemetery you would think he owned it. He knew where every grave we wanted to see was and gave us history for each one. He also told us why or why not the family was buried with each. He enlightened us with more knowledge than we could ever imagine. If you are looking first a wonderful tour guide James is the one!!!!
