  An interesting fact that I didnt see in the video that may have been said is, the guards of the tomb do not wear their military rank while guarding as to not ever outrank the fallen unknown soldiers

  &quot;The cross is a holy symbol to Christians, their prophet was crucified on it&quot;<br>&quot;Peace be upon him&quot;<br>My heart exploded. Such kindness. I&apos;m not even a believer of religion and that made me appreciate him so much. <br>Also, the gentleman that calls everyone &quot;child&quot; or &quot;my son&quot; just makes me want a grandfather like him. I want him to know there&apos;s a stranger who loves him.

  What I appreciate about the unknown soldiers is that in a way, they represent every casualty of war. Not every soldier can be exhumed and given a grave in their native country, but because these graves are anonymous, each family can mourn there and imagine that it is their own relative, returned and put to peace at last

  Another unknown fact that has become a tradition; is for the sentinels to scrape or slide their foot in a subtle way as they march past war veterans that are seated in a designated section. They do this in a subtle way as not to break bearing and as a gesture of respect and a sign to say that they acknowledge those that came before them; kind of a salute.

  Becoming a Sentinal is one of the single hardest things to do in the US military, they demand absolute perfection.

  The unknown soldier from the Vietnam tomb was identified and returned to his family in 1988. His name was Michael Joseph Blassie. He was only 24 years old when he died.

  I don’t know why, but when you explained the Christian cross to Mohammad, and he responded with “May peace be upon him” hit me hard. I’m agnostic and all I could think was “Man; that’s humanity at its finest.” Even though I have NOTHING in common with anyone in these videos, and can’t understand their primary language, I LOVE watching them learn and seeing their perspective on everything. Them expanding their mind and thought honestly helps me to expand my own. Love to all.

  I&apos;m gratified that these folks I&apos;ve never met in a land very far away, can feel the love and honor I feel for my brothers who lie buried beneath that white marble, guarded by other brothers and sisters. &nbsp;Thank you for telling the story of the Unknowns. Sometimes it breaks my heart that many of my own countrymen don&apos;t know the story. Now, people in a far-away country know, and respect, my brothers. Thank you from an old WAC.

  I wish the world leaders cared or thought the same way Muhkitar does at the end. Wise words.

  As an American who has relatives buried in Arlington, and whose family fought in every war from the revolution to our current action, with the exception of the Spanish American War, I understand the sacrifices soldiers make in the name of liberty. &nbsp;This video got me to tear up. &nbsp;I value and cherish their responses. &nbsp;<br><br>I’m a deep lover of history and political science. &nbsp;I know the history of Pakistan. &nbsp;Thank you for giving us a window into this beautiful mix of cultures and people, and thank you for allowing communication about food, culture, history and social customs. &nbsp;This is a lovely series.
