Since the first American serviceman was laid to rest at Arlington on May 13, 1864 "Americas most hallowed ground" has become the final resting place of 300,000 people. If all of the casualties of this clusterfuck were buried at Arlington - they would be more than one percent of the total internments. Staggering to contemplate when one considers that the place has been in existence for 145+ years.
