    The Defense Access Road and Southern Expansion Groundbreaking Ceremony is conducted near the Air Force Memorial in Arlington, Virginia, September 13, 2021. The event was hosted by Karen Durham-Aguilera, executive director, Army National Military Cemeteries.

    This groundbreaking marked the start of two combined projects that support the expansion of Arlington National Cemetery by realigning the roads near the site of the Old Navy Annex, relocating the ANC Service Complex, and integrating pedestrian access to the United States Air Force Memorial. The expansion will add roughly 50 acres to the cemetery as well as 80,000 new burial spaces. Durham-Aguilera spoke alongside Monique R. Evans, P.E., SES, Director, Eastern Federal Lands Highway Division; Karen J. Baker SES, Regional Programs Director, North Atlantic Division, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; and Maj. Gen. Joel D. Jackson, Commander of the Air Force District of Washington.
