Sacred Duty: A Soldier's Tour at Arlington National Cemetery Paperback -
by Tom Cotton
From the rear cover
THEIR DUTY IS SACRED. THEIR STANDARD IS PERFECTION.
An extraordinary journey behind the scenes of Arlington National Cemetery, Senator Tom Cotton's Sacred Duty offers an intimate and inspiring portrait of "The Old Guard," the revered U.S. Army unit whose mission is to honor our country's fallen heroes on the most hallowed ground in America.
Cotton was a platoon leader with the storied 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment--The Old Guard--between combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. At the height of the Iraq Surge, he laid fallen comrades to rest in Arlington's famed Section 60, "the saddest acre in America." He also performed hundreds of funerals for veterans of the Greatest Generation, as well as the Korean and Vietnam Wars.
Part history of The Old Guard, which dates back to 1784; part memoir of Cotton's time at Arlington; part intimate profile of today's soldiers, Sacred Duty is an unforgettable testament to the timeless power of service and sacrifice to our nation.Details
