    My uncle was buried here. Killed outright on 19 March 1945 Bad Kreuznach Germany. Pattons 3rd Army 4th Armored Division 37th Tank Battalion Company C. He was in the Cobra King, first tank to relieve Bastogne in the Battle of the Bulge. He was brought home several years after the war was over. 20 years after the war my grandmother was able to visit this cemetery and said it was so beautiful she would have never brought him home if she would have known. James G Murphy. Texas.

    As a Brit, most family members served our country. When travelling, no matter where I am, when I see a sign for a military war cemetery I stop, go in and pay my respects no matter what nationalities these soldiers were. They gave their lives for us.

      Our freedom? How was Hitler gonna rule 🇺🇲? No, we fought for Their freedom. & We fed them after the War. Trains traversed 🇺🇲, while cities donated food & supplies. Then shipped it over. U should see the gifts France sent back. Japan wasn't gonna invade the US. They wanted OTHER lands. & We fought to keep THEM free.

    My father, Capt. Rex Morgan, US Army, was Chief of Mortuaries of the European Theater, during and after WW2. He and his men were responsible for establishing temporary American cemeteries on the continent, several of which became permanent. He was put in charge of George Patton's funeral by General Robert Littlejohn, the Army’s Chief Quartermaster and a friend of the general. My father traveled to Paris to pick out the Patton’s steel and glass-lined coffin. He prepared his body for burial and accompanied the pallbearers to the grave. He can be seen several times in news reels of the event. Initially Patton was buried with his men but the neighboring graves became trampled so they moved him to the front. Dad was also charged with cremating and disposing of the remains of the top Nazis (Goering & Co.) hanged following their conviction at the Nuremberg Trials. That’s a big story for another day.
