An estimated 90,000 wreaths were laid at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia for the holidays this year. It is a fitting honor to those who served their country. Personally, I am a pacifist, believing that any war is too much war. However, having both my step-father and mother as military veterans, I have high respect for those who serve.
