29th May 2023 - Cambridge American Cemetery, Memorial Day

The Cambridge American Cemetery contains the remains of 3,811 U.S. dead from World War II, with another 5,127 names recorded on the Walls of the Missing. The 30-acre site lies on a slope with the western and southern sides framed by woodland. From the flagpole platform near the main entrance, the great mall with its reflecting pools stretches eastward. At the far end is the memorial with a chapel, featuring two huge military maps, stained glass windows bearing the state seals and military decorations, and a mosaic ceiling memorial. A 4,000-square-foot center visitor center opened in May 2014.
