Arlington Cemetery

Arlington Cemetery is most of what remains of the Arlington district, but to the south there is also Mama Dolce's food industry. Before the bombs, many of the country's war heroes were buried beneath this soil. Now, it is an empty spot on the map, mostly devoid of all life.

Location

 * Arlington Cemetery North can be reached through the Arlington/Wasteland Metro ("Flooded Metro") just south of Wilhelm's Wharf, a short bit southeast of Super-Duper Mart and close to the road to the Anchorage Memorial. This is the shortest way to get here from Megaton.
 * Arlington Cemetery North also connects to Georgetown to the east and Dupont Circle to the north. The connection is made through the Arlington Utility tunnel, which connects to the DCTA Tunnel 014-B Potomac tunnel that runs under the Potomac river and connects Georgetown West to Dupont West/Foggy Bottom.
 * Arlington Cemetery South can be reached through the Arlington/Falls Church Metro in Falls Church at Falls Church North map marker.

Arlington House
In the center is a single house called Arlington House. Inside the house is the Bobblehead: Luck, beds you can sleep in, and some loot.

There is also a shrine to Abraham Lincoln in the basement complete with flowers and wine.

If you have the Lawbringer perk, Junders Plunkett will be in the house. Apparently he may be sleeping or awake when the player enters. His finger is good for a 1000 cap reward.

Notable Loot
See individual articles for complete lists.

Arlington House

 * Bobblehead: Luck is on the bookshelves on the west wall of the basement


 * Bottlecap Mine downstairs on the work bench.


 * There is a safe(Very Easy) in the basement which holds some caps and pre-war money (sometimes also ammo and/or a stealth boy). )


 * There is also a safe behind the dresser in the upstairs which holds some caps and ammo.


 * Big Book of Science is in a room in the Arlington House, to the left, go down the hallway, and then in the kitchen on the left.


 * There is a locked First Aid Box (Very Easy) containing five stimpaks under the bed in the basement.

Other points of interest

 * Mama Dolce's in the south.
 * If you exit the Arlington house and head east towards the central structure with four benches surrounding it, there is a tombstone that has blooming flowers in front of it, and two more to the north of that one, and a third farther east from the structure. A very rare sight in the Capital Wasteland. (Although they are probably artificial flowers ...)

Trivia

 * Arlington House is actually the former home of Confederate general Robert E. Lee. It was siezed from him by the Union Government as punishment for his siding with Confederacy. During the Civil War it was used as a garrison for Union soldiers, and afterwards, as revenge for his son's death in the war, a Union General ordered his estate used for burying soldiers, therefore preventing Lee from regaining his estate.
