Which two adult Kennedys were buried in Arlington National Cemetery?
This question could be answered in several ways. If the question asked which two Kennedy adults were buried first, it would be the two Kennedy brothers who were assassinated in the 1960s. The two Kennedy adults in this case are John F. Kennedy, who was laid to rest in 1963 and Robert F. Kennedy in 1968. If the question asks which two Kennedy adults are buried near the Eternal Flame in Arlington, the answer would be John F. Kennedy and his wife, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, who passed away in 1994. If the question asked which two adult Kennedys are buried in the cemetery outside the Eternal Flame, it would be Robert F. Kennedy and his younger brother Edward M. Kennedy, who passed away in 2009. A total of four Kennedy adults are buried in the cemetery grounds.
