    A U.S. Army Tomb Guard with the 3d U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) patrols the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington, Virginia, April 30, 2026. Sentinels guard the tomb in any weather at every hour, while also continuously reaffirming the highest military honor of a 21-gun salute. Tomb Guards signify the 21-gun salute in the form of marching exactly 21 steps, facing east, then north for 21 seconds each then repeating the tribute, to honor the fallen. (U.S. Army photo by Spc.
