===Security procedures=== In September 2016, acting superintendent of the cemetery Patrick Hallinan announced that the cemetery was increasing security measures for its visitors. In addition to random identification checks and other security measures already in place, the cemetery would require pedestrians to enter at set access points: the main entrance on Memorial Avenue, the Ord and Weitzel gate, and the Old Post Chapel gate at Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall. Before entering the cemetery through its main entrance, all pedestrians are now screened through the cemetery's Welcome Center. All vehicle access requires presenting valid, government-issued photo identification, such as a driver's license or passport, when entering the cemetery. Vehicles are also subject to random inspections. Hallinan stated that these processes could result in delays when entering the cemetery.<ref>(1) {{cite web |url=http://www.defense.gov/News/Article/Article/941736/arlington-national-cemetery-announces-enhanced-visitor-security-measures|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160913170109/http://www.defense.gov/News/Article/Article/941736/arlington-national-cemetery-announces-enhanced-visitor-security-measures|archive-date=September 13, 2016|date=September 12, 2016|title=Arlington National Cemetery Announces Enhanced Visitor Security Measures|publisher=[[United States Department of Defense]]|access-date=September 29, 2016}}<br />(2) {{cite news|first=Victoria|last=St. Martin |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/arlington-national-cemetery-increases-security-measures/2016/09/12/0ceb7448-7926-11e6-bd86-b7bbd53d2b5d_story.html |title=Arlington National Cemetery increases security measures |date=September 12, 2016|department=Metro |newspaper=The Washington Post|access-date=September 29, 2016|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161002150251/https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/arlington-national-cemetery-increases-security-measures/2016/09/12/0ceb7448-7926-11e6-bd86-b7bbd53d2b5d_story.html|archive-date=October 2, 2016}}</ref>
