Rows of crosses |
There are 5,076 American military Dead who lost their lives in the service of their country buried in the cemetery. These honored Dead came from the 50 states and the District of Columbia. In 22 instances, two brothers rest side-by-side in adjacent graves.
Among those interred in the cemetery are 101 “Unknowns” whose remains could not be
identified. Their headstones are inscribed:
HERE RESTS IN HONORED GLORY
A COMRADE IN ARMS
KNOWN BUT TO GOD.
White marble shafts surmounted by a Star of David mark the graves of 118 of the Jewish faith, white marble Latin crosses mark the others.
