This page is dedicated to the 126 men of the 6th Armored Division at the American cemetery at St. James, Brittany, France.
Nine are on the Wall of the Missing, and one served with the independent 83rd AFA Bn which was temporarily attached to the Division during the Brittany campaign.
The individual photos of the grave stones below were taken on the morning of Tuesday, April 10, 2012. The project was only possible with the assistance of my wife Joan.
Click on any photo to see a larger version.
Names, organized alphabetically within unit and with links to individual grave stones, are listed below at All Sixers Interred at Brittany, by Unit.
This site is not affiliated with the American Battle Monuments Commission (ABMC), the wonderful people who maintain these cemeteries.
