Children of Military Families Visit Arlington National Cemetery, Reflect on Meaning of Service

 By Susanna Cox, Arlington National Cemetery

When the Senate Youth Program visited Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia, March 13, the experience held special meaning for two students, both children of military service members.  

Their visit to the cemetery preceded the Month of the Military Child, observed every April. This observance recognizes that, while service members wear the uniform, their children share the unique challenges and sacrifices that come with military service.
