In 1921, the cruiser USS Olympia carried home the remains of America’s Unknown Soldier from France. Battling hurricanes across the Atlantic, her crew guarded the flag-draped casket secured on deck. When she reached the Potomac, saluting guns roared as the fallen hero was brought to Arlington—a voyage of reverence that became Olympia’s greatest honor. #WWI #USSOlympia #UnknownSoldier #Arlington #USNavy #MilitaryHistory | The Reliable Narrator

The Ship Behind Arlington’s Ceremonial Pistols, USS Olympia In 1921, USS Olympia carried home the remains of America’s Unknown Soldier, her decks lined with silent sailors. Nearly a century later, her legacy lives on—deck wood from Olympia was used to craft the grips of the Tomb Guard’s ceremonial M17 pistols, named Silence, Respect, Dignity, and Perseverance. With every twenty-one steps, her spirit still stands watch. #USSOlympia #UnknownSoldier #Arlington #TombOfTheUnknownSoldier #WWI #America
