King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima at Arlington

Earlier today,  King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima laid a wreath at the tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National Cemetery.  They also met with Roseys and veterans who helped take part in the liberation of the Netherlands during the second World War.
