I saw this on facebook and wanted to share.....If you live near there and can go line up that would be a wonderful way to show your respect. One person on FB in the comments posted this...""Arlington National Cemetery will be the final resting place of SGT Ryan Knauss, who was killed in action in Afghanistan at the end of last month. *****If you are in Virginia, you may welcome him home TOMORROW (Thursday). His date of burial at Arlington is TBD. Here are the details:***** The route will be I81 north to I66 east to I495 Express Lanes South to I395 North. They will me making a left off of West Braddock towards the funeral home. The timing will be departing Wytheville division at 11 am. Police escort from VSP from this division will be meeting them at the Toms Brook Exit off of I81. They will refuel and should be at that exit by 1430 hours and depart Toms Brook at 1445 hours. T okhey should be entering the Prince William County / Fauquier county line at 1530 hours."""

SGT Knauss, Corryton, TN was probably a student at Gibbs High School...I coached football at Gibbs in the ‘70’s...

I will be at an overpass for him in spirit...

RIP, SGT Knauss...

His burial could take a few months. My dad is buried there and we waited 4 months. My mom is also there as of Jan. That took 7 months.

From one enemy-held country to an enemy-held county...
Fairfax County not the best place to honor an American hero...
