Last year, Civil War historian Brooks Simpson was in Europe visiting battle sites and American cemeteries containing WWI and WWII dead. Take a look at his photos and commentary. A couple of examples:
The Meuse-Argonne Cemetery; 14,246 Americans are buried here.
Grave marker of Joyce Kilmer, author of the poem "Trees", killed in action, July 30, 1918.
