On June 6, 2025, the world will pause to honor the 81st anniversary of D-Day, one of the most pivotal moments in modern history. The American Battle Monuments Commission’s Normandy American Cemetery will hold a ceremony to commemorate the deeds of the U.S. armed forces and its allies at 11 a.m. CET with U.S. and French dignitaries as well as veterans’ associations. The ceremony is open to the public.
The American Battle Monuments Commission participated in the 10th edition of Printemps des Cimetières, held May 16–18, 2025 with the theme, “Fauna, Flora, and Biodiversity in Cemeteries.” This year's event invited visitors across France to explore how natural life thrives in spaces of memory and reflection. At three ABMC cemeteries—Meuse-Argonne American Cemetery, Rhone American Cemetery, and St. Mihiel American Cemetery—the public discovered the rich biodiversity coexisting with profound history and sacrifice.
