My Great-Uncle is buried there. It's the most beautiful National Cemetery that I've ever visited. Very moving experience.

Good stuff.
I've cursed the French before, but one thing about them: they have always taken care of our graves.

I went there as well. The Canadians also have a cemetery nearby that is much smaller but very nice.
I am very glad that organization is doing that. It sounds odd to say but....Good for the French.

Went there in the fall of 2005. It was one of the most sobering experiences of my life.
