This is a photography of the Paul Ray Smith headstone at Arlington National Cemetary. Paul Ray Smith is a Medal of Honor recipient for action during the Iraq war. It was obtained from http://jccc.afis.osd.mil/images/hres.pl?Lbox_cap=1150501&dir=Photo and I believe that it is public domain since it was an image provided by the Department of Defense in performance of an official ceremony. No copyright is stated or source is given other than "Official DoD Photos provided by Joint Combat Camera Center Defense Visual Information Directorate".
