I'm not saying the tomb isn't *worthwhile* but let's not get carried away here.

The tomb of the unknown soldiers is about as sacred as you can get.

Man the youth of today have no reverence.

Hunky I'm a vet and I take honoring my dead brothers in arms very seriously and the most dishonorable thing in this whole episode is right wingers trying to score political points from it except of course for your bizarre behavior in this thread. You need to get back on your meds.
