From what I’ve read these cemeteries are maintained beautifully and respectfully.....by the French!

So we get off closing down property in THEIR country
WHY exactly??

I don’t understand that either. We certainly don’t dispatch our military to those places to guard/man cemeteries. WHO is on the premises? Embassy staff?

I’m with you - I want to know the answer to WHY...

Technically the cemeteries are US soil by treaty. Not sure who maintains them. Would be nice to see the French reopen them and provide any necessary security.
