What can't you take to Arlington National Cemetery on July 4? An American flag.
• https://www.washingtonpost.comMany Americans gathering to celebrate Independence Day will mark the holiday at Arlington National Cemetery. But for visitors feeling patriotic, there is one item that is banned on the hallowed grounds: a waving American flag.
I don't truely understand the problem with the American flag, especially with this cemetery. I mean they fight for the country so they had represented it for a moment of their lives and in my opinion, bringing a flag is like showing the country is thanksful. I work in funeral and do memorial plaque, and when there is a dead soldier the family ( or friends ) ask for a flag. I do think it is understandable. It is not disrespectful. https://www.plaque-funeraire.fr/en/
