This photo isn’t fake, by definition. However, it is misleading.

apsies:

The photo of soldiers guarding the Tomb of the Unknowns was taken in September. To the best of my knowledge it was originally shared by the facebook page for the Naval Air Facility in Washington DC with the following caption:

As most of us are ready for Sandy to make landfall, just remember ‘The Old Guard’ is out there today, still guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. This is what dedication to service is all about and their mission which they uphold with such honor.

The image will remain on my blog with the new caption because the sentiment remains. There are and will be soldiers guarding the Tomb of the Unknowns throughout this storm. Their dedication is admirable.

Here are some images from today:
