ARLINGTON, Va. — Friends and relatives of Americans slain in acts of terrorism gathered Friday at Arlington National Cemetery for a somber tribute on the fourth anniversary of the bombing that killed 241 Marines at their barracks in Beirut.
The annual commemoration, held on a crisp autumn day in the quiet of the cemetery, was organized by No Greater Love, a group that memorializes American servicemen, diplomats and private citizens who were victims of terrorism.
