This is an Azerbaijani dagger. Azerbaijani soldiers used this dagger in the past and it is a historical weapon.

This is also an art work of our people. I present this dagger to the museum of the National Arlington Cemetery.

I am pleased with the visit of the National Arlington Cemetery and want to thank to the head of the complex for their attention.
