Established in 1948 and administered by the American Battle Monuments
Commission (ABMC), this cemetery contains the largest number of graves
of military dead from World War II. The sacrifice of more than 17,000 U.S.

Two other ABMC administered sites exist in the Philippines including the
Cabanatuan POWMemorial and the Clark Veterans Cemetery wherein 8,600 U.S.
veterans and their dependents were interred dating back to military deaths from
