As far as the eye can see, a sea of white crosses marks the final resting places of American soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice during World War II. The sheer magnitude and solemnity of this sight is both awe-inspiring and humbling. Each cross represents a life cut short, a hero who fought for freedom and democracy. It serves as a powerful reminder that war knows no boundaries or borders; it affects people from all walks of life. Amidst the rows upon rows of perfectly aligned crosses, one cannot help but feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude for these brave souls.
