"When the cause of freedom and democracy is threatened then, from out of the blue sky, shall come the Unknown Soldier - dauntless American champion of all who fight under the Stars and Stripes - from the smallest child to the bravest doughboy. Who is he? Nobody knows! Where does he come from? Nobody knows! He is just...the Unknown Soldier."
