一名美国陆军军人走上阿灵顿国家公墓(Arlington National Cemetery)圆形纪念广场的台阶,这是在11月11日退伍军人纪念日 (Veterans Day)举行全国性纪念仪式的地点。
欧巴马总统在2013年退伍军人纪念日公告中说:“在退伍军人纪念日到来之际,美国抚今追昔,向曾经身穿我国任何一种军服的每一位军人致敬。每当我国遭受攻击的时候,他们都挺身而出捍卫国家。每当我们的自由遭到侵袭的时候,他们都坚定不移地予以回击。一代又一代军人坚毅果敢,勇于献身,使我们的共和国实现了繁荣昌盛。”

A U.S. Army soldier walks up the steps of the amphitheater at Arlington National Cemetery, the site of a national ceremony commemorating Veterans Day on November 11.
“On Veterans Day, America pauses to honor every service member who has ever worn one of our nation’s uniforms,” President Obama said in his 2013 Veterans Day proclamation. “Each time our country has come under attack, they have risen in her defense. Each time our freedoms have come under assault, they have responded with resolve. Through the generations, their courage and sacrifice have allowed our republic to flourish.”
