A Moving Visit to the American and Philippine Cemetery Honoring the Valient Soldiers of WWII

Engraved names of MIA soldiers both American and Philippine. There were some small bronze stars next to names where the remains had been recovered and are no longer MIA. In gold engravings are the names of those who have received a Gold Medal of Honor.

Elder looking at a wall map of some of the battle strategies used in WWII in the Asia Pacific. He was quite emotional.
