Assistant Commandant of the Marine Corps Gen. James F. Amos, along with French Brig. Gen. Eric Bonnemaison, Commandant of the 9th Brigade Legere Blindee de Marine, arrive at Belleau Wood for a wreath-laying ceremony at the feet of Iron Mike. The early morning ceremony marked the beginning of a series of Memorial Day events at the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery. Each year, thousands of U.S. and French service members, their families, tourists and locals, gather to honor the memories of the 2,289 war-dead buried at the cemetery.
