The 35th Commandant of the Marine Corps General James F. Amos lays a wreath at the foot of the steps that lead to the chapel at the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery in front of dignitaries and a formation of Marines from 5th and 6th Marine Regiments during a Memorial Day ceremony here. At the cemetery, there are 2,039 known buried and 250 unknown. In the chapel, there are 1,060 names inscribed on the walls to commemorate the missing—all from the Battle of Belleau Wood.
