In a few weeks 11/11/2025 marks the 80th anniversary of Veterans/Remembrance Day. This photo hit me quite hard this morning. I figured we could all use a reminder

The crosses all face west towards their home while they rest in foreign soil

They paid the ultimate price defending a cause they believed in - halfway across the world

True Americans

I’ll never forget

I thought I knew the history. But I'd never seen this cemetery before. It just stopped my day and reminded me of our legacy. Thanks for posting.

The pride shown in the caretakers is worthy of my deepest gratitude!
