Gen George S Patton Jnr - grave

George S. Patton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A before and after. Thought I'd put the first one up as I can't find anything similar on 'net.

"Patton was buried at the Luxembourg American Cemetery and Memorial in Hamm, Luxembourg along with other members of the Third Army. On March 19, 1947, his body was moved from the original grave site in the cemetery to its current prominent location at the head of his former troops."
