The informational plaque at the cemetary.  Some very interesting information - the 77 acre facility contains 7,861 of our soldiers, Marines and sailors that died in area fighting.  You might want to download the big picture if you want to read it.  Click the grey box w/green down arrow to download and view.

Headstones.  How did they get them so perfectly spaced to make the curved lines?  Notice the Star of David towards the left.

Looking towards the west and the memorial.  It was good to see the Stars and Stripes flying over foreign soil.
