On October 22, 2021, join Arlington National Cemetery, the American Battle Monuments Commission, and the National WWI Museum and Memorial for a special partnered program to commemorate the centennial of the selection of the World War I Unknown Solider. This lunch-and-learn webinar will explore the fascinating story of how the U.S. Army selected the World War I Unknown Soldier and went to great lengths to ensure his eternal anonymity. It will touch upon the context of American military burial practices and memorialization in the World War I era and highlight ABMC’s deep connections to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
