ABMC chairman U.S. Army Gen. (Ret.) Michael X. Garrett, ABMC commissioner U.S. Navy Rear Admiral (Ret.) Michael E. Smith and ABMC secretary Charles K. Djou will attend public and private events, respectively, at Manila American Cemetery, Naval Monument at Gibraltar and Cambridge American Cemetery to commemorate Veterans Day to commemorate Veterans Day and honor the U.S. armed forces who made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.

For more than 100 years, ABMC, the guardian of America’s overseas commemorative cemeteries and military memorials, has honored the memory and legacy of service members through commemorative ceremonies across its cemeteries, keeping the promise of ABMC’s first chairman, Gen. John J. Pershing that, “Time will not dim the glory of their deeds.”
