Fallen but Not Forgotten...

Here rest 8,301 of the U.S. military Dead, representing 43 percent of those who were originally buried in this and in other temporary cemeteries in this region. Most of them gave their lives in the airborne and ground operations to liberate eastern Holland, during the advances into Germany over the Roer and across the Rhine and in air operations over these regions.

The World War II Netherlands American Cemetery and Memorial is the only cemetery of this kind in the Netherlands.
