Visit to the Cambridge American Cemetery, 1 March 2015

When we visited the American Cemetery in May 2014, the Visitor Center was about to open to
the public. This repeat visit was an opportunity to be introduced to the Visitor Center and look at
its impressive interpretive displays, led by Arthur Brookes. At 4:30 pm, we were privileged to
help lower and fold the American flag.

For further information, see the
American Battle Monuments Commission.
