Above its bronze entrance door is engraved: Greet Them Ever With Grateful Hearts On three of the outer walls, the dedicatory inscription appears in French, Flemish and English: This Chapel Has Been Erected By The United States Of America In Memory Of Her Soldiers Who Fought And Died In Belgium During The World War.

On the front of the altar is inscribed: I Will Ransom Them From The Power Of The Grave I Will Redeem Them From Death Above it carved on a rose-tinted marble panel is a Crusader's sword outlined in gold.

On the side walls of the chapel, panels of rose St. George marble carry the names of 43 American soldiers who lost their lives in Belgium and sleep in unknown graves.

The majority of the soldiers memorialized at the Flanders Field American Cemetery represent four main divisions who fought in Belgium during the final weeks of the war.

The Flanders Field American Cemetery is situated on a battlefield where the 91st Division suffered many casualties in securing the nearby wooded area called "Spitaals Bosschen".
