Arlington National Cemetery is home to 26 Medal of Honor trees that are descendants of those that have witnessed significant moments in American history. These trees were planted in recognition of Medal of Honor recipients from the state accompanying the historical event, place or person.
Join us as we take a look at several of these descendant trees and recognize some of the 400 Medal of Honor recipients laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery.
