    The Unknown is a symbol of American sacrifice. He represents the son, brother, or father of thousands of Americans who were never identified in America’s wars. Although today’s dead are quickly identified and often brought back home within days, the Unknown symbolizes a different era in America’s history—much like the ship that carried him.
