Here you will find a beautiful and spiritual resting place for the thousands that died in battle. When you first enter, there is a feeling of awe and reverent silence. Reading the gravestones, lined up like soldiers themselves, you might happen upon the grave of Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. The ages - so young - bring home the sacrifices made for all of us. The cemetery is not far from the beaches of Omaha, Utah and Pointe du Hoc.
