About Cambridge American Cemetery 

Cambridge American Cemetery in England was donated by the University of Cambridge. It lies on a slope with the west and south sides framed by woodland. The cemetery contains the remains of more than 3,800 U.S. service members and more than 5,100 additional names are recorded on its walls of the missing. Bronze rosettes mark the names of those since recovered and identified.  

It is the only cemetery in the U.K. dedicated to honoring fallen Americans who served during World War II. Most of the service members honored here died in the Battle of the Atlantic or in the strategic air bombardment of northwest Europe.
