To Honor with Dignity
“To Honor with Dignity” poster art.
The Last Parade
Enter the gate lost treasure so dear
The parade has ended with heroes and tears
Walk softly near stones set sullen in dirt
that challenge the truth asleep in the earth
Long acres of memories vivid and old
Keep guard on ground and tales that were told
Stand silent bold witness past giants that fall
Lost childhood and innocence standing less tall
Steel winter dark light cold beaming our breath
All that we gained now quiet at rest.
Sing thankful last song, give final salute
Respect and dignity, we honor your truth
Look forward to sunshine your loving embrace
Rest now sweet hero, great peace – divine grace
Enter the gate lost treasures so dear
New day another parade with heroes and tears
Poem and Song by: Jack Anderson (Andy) – 2018

Arlington National Cemetery is the largest cemetery in the United States National Cemetery System, one of two maintained by the United States Army. More than 400,000 people are buried in its 639 acres (259 ha) in Arlington County, Virginia.
Arlington National Cemetery was established on 13 May 1864, during the American Civil War after Arlington Estate, the land on which the cemetery was built, was confiscated by the U.S. federal government from the private ownership of Confederate States Army general Robert E. Lee’s family following a tax dispute over the property. The cemetery is managed by the U.S. Department of the Army. As of 2024, it conducts approximately 27 to 30 funerals each weekday and between six and eight services on Saturday, or 141 to 158 per week.
In April 2014, Arlington National Cemetery Historic District, including Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington House, Memorial Drive, the Military Women’s Memorial, and Arlington Memorial Bridge, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
