Henri-Chapelle & Neuville Cemeteries
#5

Yesterday - 27.09.2008 - I went to visit the Neuville and Henri-Chapelle US Military Cemeteries again.

This time, I had brought with me flowers to put on the two graves I adopted.

I also looked up the graves of airmen (in Neuville) and a GI of the 1st ID (Henri-Chapelle) for friends at the USMF (Militaria forum).

 

The Superintendent was very helpful and provided me with vases and the US and Belgian flags.

 

Leslie Banaka - 602nd TD Bn.

Homan Jackson - 4th Armored Division.

It was a very sunny and clear day.

They were playing appropriate music making the whole setting very peaceful and impressive at the same time.

 

I'm going to make it a yearly visit (at least) from now on.

Hopefully soon I'll be there with my Fiancée as she appears to have a genuine interest in what I do.
