This summer marks my second time visiting DC. The time before this was a memorable but not so enjoyable experience. In 2010 we lost my grandfather, Kalman Horvath, a great man and a great soldier. He served the U.S. Army in WWII and his plane was shot down over Hungary. I do not know much of the story because it was not something he shared with us. Due to his bravery while he was a POW he was able to be buried in Arlington cemetery. It was so great being able to go back after two years to visit his gravesite. While I miss him immensely, it is great knowing that his legacy will forever be remembered in this national cemetery.
