Even with a blizzard pounding the D.C. area, The Old Guard is continuing to stand guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery.

The Old Guard is the oldest active infantry unit and premiere ceremonial unit in the U.S. Army and despite this snowstorm that could bring possibly 1 to 2 feet of snowfall, the tomb guards will continue to maintain a constant vigil here.
