The Never-Ending March
On a wooded Virginia hillside overlooking the Potomac River and Washington, DC, is the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. "Here Rests In Honored Glory An American Soldier Known But To God". On March 21, 1921, Congress approved the burial of an unidentified American soldier from World War One in the plaza of the new Memorial Amphitheater. Sculpted into the panel that faces East, facing Washington, are three Greek figures representing Peace, Victory, and Valor. Remains of unknown soldiers from World War Two, Korea and Vietnam have been buried in the walkway in front of the original sarcophagus. A member of the U.S. Army's "Old Guard" stands watch over the tomb around the clock, pacing twenty-one steps back and forth year round.

Protecting The Right
In a scene that would not have been possible during the original Civil Rights movement, a black National Guard soldier finds himself in the odd position of protecting the rights to free speech and assembly for the Klan and white supremacists who gathered to heckle and jeer the peaceful Brotherhood marchers.

173 November 8, 1998 I'm always touched by how quickly people can lose their lives, lose everything, of how a lifetime can just gone in a flash. And then how it's just a note in the next day's newspaper, and then gone from our thoughts forever.
