4: The Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National Cemetery is also known as the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and has never been officially named. The Tomb of the Unknowns stands atop a hill overlooking Washington, D.C.\n\nOne of the more popular sites at the Cemetery, the Tomb is made from Yule marble quarried in Colorado. It consists of seven pieces, with a total weight of 79 short tons (72 metric tons). The Tomb was completed and opened to the public April 9, 1932, at a cost of $48,000.\n\nIt was at first the "Tomb of the Unknown Soldier." Other unknown servicemen were later buried there, and the name became "Tomb of the Unknowns."\n\nUnknown Soldier of World War I, interred November 11, 1921. President Warren G. Harding presided. \nUnknown Soldier of World War II, interred May 30, 1958. President Dwight Eisenhower presided. \nUnknown Soldier of the Korean War, interred May 30, 1958.

The remains of the Vietnam Unknown were disinterred May 14, 1998, and were identified as those of Air Force 1st Lt. Michael J. Blassie, whose family has reinterred him near their home in St. Louis, Missouri. It has been determined that the crypt at the Tomb of the Unknowns that contained the remains of the Vietnam Unknown will remain empty. \nThe Tomb of the Unknowns is guarded by the U.S. Army 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The 3rd U.S. Infantry ("The Old Guard") began guarding the Tomb April 6, 1948.

Gerald Rudolph Ford, Jr. (born July 14, 1913) was the 40th (1973–1974) Vice President and the 38th (1974–1977) President of the United States. He was the nation's first President who was elected to neither the Presidency nor Vice Presidency. Instead, following the resignation of Spiro Agnew in 1973, he was appointed as Vice President by Richard Nixon following confirmation by Congress, and when Nixon later resigned, on August 9, 1974, Ford assumed the Presidency. Along with his own Vice President, Nelson Rockefeller, he is one of only two people to have been appointed Vice President rather than elected.

World War II, also, The Second World War, or WWII, was the global military conflict that took place between 1939 and 1945. World War II was the largest and deadliest war in history.\n\nThe war began between Germany and the Allies. Germany was later joined by Italy, Japan, and others, jointly known as the Axis. The Allies at first were made up of Poland, the United Kingdom, France, and others. In June 1941, Germany invaded the Soviet Union, and in December, Japan attacked the United States. China, which had been at war with Japan since the mid-1930s, also joined the Allies, as eventually did a number of other countries.\n\nItaly surrendered to and then joined the Allies in late 1943. Germany surrendered to the Allies in May of 1945. The war ended on 2 September 1945 with the formal surrender of Japan.\n\nApproximately 62 million people died in the war. Most were civilians, as a result of the large-scale aerial bombing of cities, disease, starvation, and genocide (see the Holocaust). It is guessed that the Soviet Union suffered around 23 million deaths, and that China suffered about 10 million. Poland suffered the most deaths in proportion to its population of any country, losing 5.6 million out of a pre-war population of 34.8 million.\n\nThe war was responsible for the re-drawing of national boundaries and the creation of new nations, the end of western colonialism, and the beginning of the Cold War. [1]\n\nAfter World War II, Europe was informally partitioned into Western and Soviet spheres of influence. Western Europe largely aligned as NATO, and Eastern Europe largely as the Warsaw pact. There was a fundamental shift in power from Western Europe and the British Empire to the new superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union, with significant boundary changes and displacement of people as the Soviet Union's borders shifted westwards.\n\nIn Asia, the United States' military occupation of Japan led to Japan's democratization. China's civil war continued through and after the war, resulting eventually in the establishment of the People's Republic of China. The former colonies of the European powers, such as India, Indonesia, and Vietnam, began their road to independence.\n\nFinally, the war saw a number of newly developed weapons that were used against either military and civilian targets. Atomic weapons, long range missiles, jet aircraft, and radar, are only a few of many wartime inventions that changed the nature of future conflict.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WW_2

It's in Mount Pleasant, IL.  The memorial is the tombstone of King Neptune, who was the official Navy mascot during WWII.  He died in 1950.  The inscription on the stone reads:\n\n"Buried here - King Neptune, famous Navy mascot pig auctioned for $19,000,000.00 in war bonds 1942-1946 to help make a free world."\n\nThe memorial has been moved from it's original location due to vandalism, it's now located at the Trail of Tears Welcome Center.

World War II, also, The Second World War, or WWII, was the global military conflict that took place between 1939 and 1945. World War II was the largest and deadliest war in history.\n\nThe war began between Germany and the Allies. Germany was later joined by Italy, Japan, and others, jointly known as the Axis. The Allies at first were made up of Poland, the British Commonwealth, France, and others. In June 1941, Germany invaded the Soviet Union, and in December, Japan attacked the United States. China, which had been at war with Japan since the mid-1930s, also joined the Allies, as eventually did a number of other countries.\n\nItaly surrendered in September 1943, Germany in May 1945. The surrender of Japan marked the end of the war, on September 2, 1945.\n\nIt is possible that up to 62 million people died in the war; estimates vary greatly. Most were civilians who died as a result of disease, starvation, genocide, and the aerial bombing of cities. Estimates place deaths in the Soviet Union at around 23 million, while China suffered about 10 million. Poland suffered the most deaths in proportion to its population of any country, losing approximately 5.6 million out of a pre-war population of 34.8 million (16%).\n\nThe war was responsible for the re-drawing of national boundaries and the creation of new nations, the end of western colonialism, and the beginning of the Cold War.

China's civil war continued through and after the war, resulting eventually in the establishment of the People's Republic of China. The former colonies of the European powers began their road to independence.\n\nKey alliances are formed\nOn September 1, the German invasion of Poland began World War II. Britain, France, Australia and New Zealand all declared war on Germany on September 3. Nepal, Newfoundland, Tonga, South Africa and Canada followed suit within days. On September 17, the Soviets invaded Poland from the East. The following year, the USSR annexed the Baltic states (Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania) together with parts of Romania, and attacked Finland. The German-Soviet agreement was brought to an end by the German invasion of the USSR on June 22, 1941.\n\nThe United States of America joined the Allies following the attack on Pearl Harbor, on December 7, 1941. The Declaration by United Nations, on January 1, 1942, officially united 26 nations as Allies. (The Declaration also formed the basis for the United Nations.) The informal Big 3 alliance of the United Kingdom, the Soviet Union, and the United States emerged in the latter half of the war, and their decisions determined Allied strategy around the world.\n\n\nDates of joining Allies\n Poland: 1939, 1 September \n United Kingdom: 1939, 3 September \n Australia: 1939, 3 September \n New Zealand: 1939, 3 September \n France: 1939, 3 September \n Nepal: 1939, 4 September \n Newfoundland: 1939, 4 September \n Tonga: 1939, 4 September \n South Africa: 1939, 6 September \n Canada: 1939, 10 September \n Denmark: 1940, 9 April \n Norway: 1940, 9 April \n Belgium: 1940, 10 May \n Luxembourg: 1940, 10 May \n Netherlands: 1940, 10 May \n Free France: 1940, 18 June \n Greece: 1940, 28 October \n Kingdom of Yugoslavia: 1941, 6 April \n Soviet Union: 1941, 22 June \n Tannu Tuva: 1941, 25 June until 1944, 11 October \n Panama: 1941, 7 December \n Philippines: 1941, 7 December \n Costa Rica: 1941, 8 December \n Dominican Republic: 1941, 8 December \n El Salvador: 1941, 8 December \n Haiti: 1941, 8 December \n Honduras: 1941, 8 December \n Nicaragua: 1941, 8 December \n United
