During our visits to Luxembourg, we have discovered a sense of gratefulness to the United States Military for the sacrifices made during WW II.
Early one morning, we attended a dedication of a memorial to a US pilot downed in WWII in a Luxembourg field. His remains were found only recently.
The mass conducted inside the church was even televised and attended by one of the ministers of the government.
Reenactors of WWII were present with vehicles maintained in top condition.
There was a solemnity to the occasion.
United States Air Force Officers give one final salute at the memorial site.
General Patton is buried at the American Military Cemetery in Luxembourg.
Luxembourg is a beautiful, hilly country. We are so glad to be close enough to visit often.
