Battle of the Bulge Memorial

Our first stop on this last day was at the Battle of the Bulge Memorial in Haam. This was built by Luxembourg to honor our American war dead in that campaign. Here is the entrance, with two golden laurel wreaths on the gate, the ancient award for valor. Gilded eagles surmount the stone pillars with 13 stars below each one. It is a beautiful entrance into a serene and peaceful site.
