Madingley American Cemetery

Mark, Michael, and I joined Kaitlyn and the Girl Scouts to clean the gravestones at the cemetery. It was a very moving experience. Nearly 4000 are buried there with over 5000 listed on the wall for those that were killed but not able to be buried. “Only God knows where they rest.” When someone comes to visit a specific marker, the staff put sand from Normandy beach in the letters, this makes the names highlight gold and stand out for the photographs.
