A Century of Honor Captured in the Colt 1911 Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier has stood at Arlington National Cemetery since 1921, guarded without interruption by the U.S. Army's 3rd Infantry Regiment - the Old Guard - as a symbol of the nation's enduring gratitude to those who gave everything in service to their country. 

The 100th anniversary of its dedication in 2021 demanded a commemoration worthy of that legacy. Colt and TALO answered with a pistol engraved with the very words inscribed on the Tomb itself: "Here rests in honored glory an American soldier known but to God." To own this pistol is to carry that tribute with you.

Colt 1911 Tomb of the Unknown Soldier Engraving and Craftsmanship

Every surface of this pistol tells a story. The safety side of the slide bears the dedication "Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, 1921 – 100th Anniversary – 2021," while the opposite side carries the three virtues that define the spirit of the Unknown Soldier: "Peace Victory Valor." 

The top of the slide features a rendering of a Tomb Guard standing watch - the same silent, precise sentinel that has guarded the Tomb every hour of every day for over a century. The grips continue the tribute with an additional Tomb Guard engraving, ensuring that every surface of this pistol reflects the gravity and honor of the subject it commemorates.
