We pay solemn tribute to the American service members who gave their lives in defense of our Nation. Because they gave up their tomorrows, we have our todays. 🇺🇸

This past weekend, U.S. service members, allied military partners, and local communities gathered at American Battle Monuments Commission cemeteries across Europe. Together, we honored the nearly 70,000 fallen heroes of World War I and World War II who rest on European soil. We remain forever indebted to their selfless sacrifice, and we continue to stand shoulder-to-shoulder
with our European allies to safeguard the peace they fought so hard to secure.

Take a look at the video from ceremonies at Flanders Field American Cemetery, BE and Somme American Cemetery, FR.
