Obama pays tribute to vets in ceremony at Arlington cemetery

President Barack Obama celebrated the diversity and selflessness of U.S. veterans in a speech at Arlington National Cemetery in his final Veterans Day ceremony as president. "Today on Veterans Day, we honor those who honored our country with it’s highest form of service,” Obama said. They represent the “single most diverse institution in our country. They represent every corner of our country…Christian, Muslim, Jew and non believer alike all forged into common service," he added.
