One of the featured art pieces. There have been very few female Sentinels at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. There are currently three serving now. Inside the Women's Memorial are three marble slabs-all sister marble to the marble the Tomb itself is made of, cut from the same quarry at the same time. Nobody, not even the Sentinels are permitted to touch the tomb, so they visit the Women's Memorial to touch the marble there for luck and strength.
