Arlington National Cemetery and the 3d Infantry Regiment invite you to join us as we pay homage to the first official Decoration Day, now known as Memorial Day.

On Sunday, May 25 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., visitors are welcome to walk across the Tomb plaza and place a flower at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier during Flowers of Remembrance Day.

At 10 a.m., ANC historians will offer a history talk highlighting the Army 250 birthday in the center of the Memorial Amphitheater. An optional walking tour will follow the talk at 10:30 a.m.

No registration is necessary for participation. ANC will provide flowers for all visitors. We encourage visitors to bring water and stay hydrated while in the cemetery. We hope you will join us for this unique opportunity to honor our nation’s fallen.
