American Cemetery Luxembourg Memorial Day 2004

[Luxembourger]

Here some pictures I made on that great day.
Many American soldiers came that day to the US cemetery where about 5000 graves are including the one of General PAtton .

GOD BLESS THEM ALL

on this picture there is one white cross which stands alone, that s patton s grave. I have some pics of his grave from a different ancle, but on that day I didn t walk over the lawn to his grave to make the pic. I have pcis of his grave that I made some years before. IF anyone wants a good pci of his grave let me know.
