VIDEO – CARING FOR THE FALLEN

Today, June 6, D Day, is remembered as the turning point of the Second World War.  Many lives were lost that day and this video shows the very caring way the American Battle Monument Commission has painstakingly  cared for the fallen of all our wars that were fought overseas.   Nancy  

Below is a link of a 12 minute reportage of what they do for the fallen primarily in Europe and also in Africa and the Philippines. 


The American Battle Monuments Commission (ABMC) was created in 1923 to commemorate the service and sacrifice of the U.S. Armed Forces. More than 200,000 American fallen and Missing in Action (MIA) are interred and honored at our cemeteries and memorials. ABMC is proud to bring you a series of brand new videos that highlight the beauty, sanctity and serenity of our sites. Whether you have visited an ABMC cemetery or want to, we hope you will enjoy this introduction to our cemeteries and how the fallen are honored every day. Together, let’s remember our fallen service men and women’s sacrifice. #ReDiscoverABMC The American Battle Monuments Commission honors America’s fallen service members and their stories at 26 overseas cemeteries and 31 monuments. www.abmc.gov #WeRemember #service #USmilitary #WWI #WWII #history #education #Americanhistory
