As is traditional each year on Memorial Day, when the nation honors its war dead, the president and his wife then traveled the short distance from the White House across the Potomac River to Arlington National Cemetery.
就像每年阵亡将士纪念日的传统一样，总统和夫人随后前往距离白宫不远的位于波托马克河对岸的阿灵顿国家公墓。

Saying his heart goes out to those mourning the loss of a loved one.
奥巴马说，他对那些哀悼失去亲人的人深表同情。
"On this day we remember that it is on our behalf that they gave their lives. We remember that it is their courage, their unselfishness, their devotion to duty that has sustained this country through all its trials and will sustain us through all the trials to come. We remember that the blessings we enjoy as Americans came at a dear cost; that our very presence here today, as free people in a free society, bears testimony to their enduring legacy."
