Memorial Day Remembrances: The Rough Riders

Tour Guide Tell All wants to help you observe the true meaning of our Memorial Day Weekend, honoring all those who have sacrificed for our country, by taking a deep dive into one of the most storied military units of all time (even though we aren't quite sure why...), Teddy Roosevelt's Rough Riders.   Join the Rebeccas as they reveal the origins of these "Riders" who didn't actually get to ride much of anything, and the prominent connections between the war that made the Rough Riders famous and our own Arlington National Cemetery here in the DC area.   Comments or Questions?
