Memorial Day 2021 at the Netherlands American Cemetery at Margraten. Acting Deputy Chief of Mission Jennifer DeWitt Walsh led an Embassy delegation to honor our WWII fallen alongside our Dutch friends and partners.
Thank you very much for posting the 2021 Memorial Day Ceremony so that those of us far away are able watch and hear the wonderful gratitude and respect expressed to the families of the fallen, who are honored this day and in this place. My uncle, PFC Alfred A. Wang, rests among the fallen in Margraten. His family is grateful for the decades of care and remembrance he receives from the people of the Netherlands.
Thank you so much for this tribute to our fallen soldiers. Being Dutch born shortly after WW II, I deeply appreciate this tribute. I can't begin to tell you what it felt like for me to see and visit this cemetery when I visited Holland. My family is so grateful for all the Allies did in liberating Holland and for the food drops at that time.
