Honoring Our Veterans


Honoring Our Veterans

Earlier today, Vice President Joe Biden visited Arlington National Cemetery and took part in a ceremony to honor America’s veterans.

After laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns, he delivered remarks in which he thanked our nation’s veterans for their service to bravely and faithfully protect our freedom.

The Vice President also sent a message to the White House email list this afternoon, in which he explained that “it’s our sacred obligation” to care for our troops not only when they go to war, but also when they return home.
