Original caption

With the advent of America’s traditional day homage to its war dead, these views are released to show soldier graves abroad. Brookwood American Military Cemetery near London, England. Graves Registration make every effort to give the deceased soldier the kind of funeral his relatives would want him to have. Here a procession carries a soldier friend out of the chapel after the Army Chaplain has said the services. A guard of honor faces the casket.
