SK Garrett Thomas recently returned from a trip to Washington,
DC and shared with us these pictures from Arlington National
Cemetery.
Above is a memorial plaque displayed at the Tomb of the
Unknowns donated by and proudly bearing the Knights of
Columbus logo.
Below is a plaque at President John F. Kennedy’s grave site
bearing the famous words of his inaugural address. The 2011
restoration of this plaque was underwritten by the Knights of
Columbus. Kennedy, of course, was both a Knight and the the
first Catholic president.
Brother Garrett reports that the Knights are quite well represented
in Washington, DC, due in large part to the many patriotic displays and activities in which the order participates.
