The sentinel marches 21 steps across the black mat, past the final resting places of the Unknown Soldiers of World War I, World War II, Korea, and the crypt of the Unknown Soldier of the Vietnam War.
With a crisp turn, the sentinel turns 90 degrees to face east for 21 seconds.
The sentinel then turns a sharp 90 degrees again to face north for 21 seconds. A crisp “shoulder-arms” movement places the rifle on the shoulder nearest the visitors to signify that the sentinel stands between the tomb and any threat.
After the moment, the sentinel paces 21 steps north, turns and repeats the process.
The practiced cadence is timed so that the sentinel paces at a rate of 90 steps each minute.
The mouthpiece newspaper of China’s Communist Party has launched a blistering attack on The New York Times, accusing it of “faking” and “distorting” news and being a government “propaganda tool”.
Among other things, the Chinese Communist Party rag correctly accused the NYT of plagiarism.
But in a humiliating about-turn, within hours of the People’s Daily publishing its lengthy assault on the American newspaper’s journalistic integrity it emerged that much of the Chinese newspaper’s critique had in fact been plagiarised from other sources.
I thought this would be a good place for an article about how Muammar Gaddafi also met his end due apparently to a bayonet stuck up his a$$, but the link won’t post so you’ll have to use a search engine to find the story.
In any case, the point being the U.S. isn’t the only armed force still using bayonets and they work pretty well.
Plus if you go to the right link you get to see a video of Gaddafi getting slapped around a bit, if you’re into that sort of thing.
I can’t help but think that Obama’s mismanagement, from well before they died to the present moment, will be part of why he is about to lose, and lose big.
The loss that is coming for Obama and the progs will be…the cliche “epic” fails to emphasis the magnitude of what’s about to happen, but…epic.
The media keeps the horse race going…the “battleground states” are “too close to call”…but come election night, these hacks will have an egg the size of a Jovian moon on their faces. It’s a ground-swell of titanic proportions that is either under the radar of the press or purposely being ignored…but not for much longer.
Better call us “RACIST” one last time, take one more shot, shove one more finger in our eyes, because November 6th begins the disinfection…and this time, we’re not going to be polite about it.
Mr. Obama, check the dictionary for the word “comeuppance”.
It is to be hoped that the coming political watershed will be properly understood by Republicans as a mandate for a societal re-orientation.
This includes a mandate to change course in our Academia.
Where do all these “palestinian professors” come from, for example and why are they allowed to preach Jew-hatred and against the very country that has given them their posts along with more than generous remuneration?
Will there be an investigation of what mosks and moslem “cultural institutes” will have to be closed for violations of our laws?
Who will investigate if National security interests have been compromised by the the outgoing administration and how to reverse that?
Are any of you comfortable with Huma Abedin and Valerie Jarrett having had access to sensitive files?
Who will protect our human assets overseas who are no at risk as a direct consequence of our enemies having been granted direct access to classified dossiers?
The mandate RR will receive also charges them with de-gaying the military and re-writing the politically correct Rules of Engagement which make effective combat impossible.
WHY HAS NONE OF THIS BEEN DISCUSSED DURING THE CAMPAIGN PROCESS??!!
Mary correctly points out that, “Marines follow the code of honor.”
Yes, yes they do…….and so do the Soldiers of the United States Army, in this case the “Old Guard” of the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment.
When the weather gets dangerous enough and Arlington is closed to the public they will switch to BDUs and take cover, but they will never, ever stop standing guard.
Presidents worry about their legacies. Obama, the narcissist, is going to be very unhappy because his term in office will forever be measured by Benghazi. The other misfires and lies and failures of his one term will go down the list and he will be the first president that turned his back on Americans in peril.
Obama can only sleep well at night because those who protect him are honorable. Were they cut from the same cloth as Obama, he would never know restful sleep.
OUTRAGE: “Rogue” U.S. General Arrested for Ignoring 9/11 Bengzahi Stand-Down Order
“A General who made the decision to assist diplomatic and intelligence assets on the ground has been arrested and will likely be retired or worse, while those who ordered the removal of embassy security details and ordered U.S. forces to stand-down are left to go on about their business and likely risk more American lives in the future.”

We have an “Old Guard” Veteran in our Patriot Guard Riders. He is quite a man. They go through a lot to get there and its a lifetime commitment to NEVER dishonor the Guard or the Unknowns.

HONOR.
Puts a lump in my throat.
HONOR exactly!
There is a piece of every one of us inside that marble square.
There is no piece of a dishonorable man like Obama in there.
Simply awe-inspiring.
Marines follow the code of honor.

Early voting matches polls that put Romney up by about 7 points!
Meanwhile, Obama campaign takes money from Osama bin Laden
They’ll accept donations from pretty much anyone at this point!
And votes – you know Osama is now a lifelong Democrat… er… a DEATHlong Democrat I mean!

But…but…but….I thought “this was the day the rise of the oceans began to recede”…the Anointed One can’t stop Sandy????
This is exactly why Obama can’t shake my faith. Way to stand tall brothers!

Obama wants to know what those sharp things on the end of those sticks are.
Thank you to our military.
