Even as Hurricane Sandy approaches, soldiers of the 3rd Inf Reg. continue to stand guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The tomb has been guarded continuously since 1948.

The picture with three soldiers was shot last September.
The left one was taken depicting Sgt. Jose A. Torres Jr. of U.S. Army guarding the tom was taken in October, 29 during hurricane Sandy.
Either way the symbol was safe during the hurricane and that should make us very secure and peaceful.
