A crowd of men, women and children look on as a woman fixes a flower arrangement into place at the group of graves dedicated to Allied soldiers. The sign above the group reads 'A nos Camarades - Britanniques - Américains - Morts pour La Patrie - en témoignage d'Amitié et de Reconnaissance.' [To our Friends - Britons - Americans - who died for this country - as a mark of Friendship and Recognition]. The grave marker that can be seen belongs to Lawrence S Carner.
