Rhone American Cemetery and Memorial

Rhone American Cemetery and Memorial is a Second World War American military war grave cemetery, located within the city of Draguignan, 42 km (26 mi) north of Saint-Tropez, in Southern France.

The cemetery, named for the Rhone river where most of those interred fought and died, was dedicated in 1956, and contains 858 American war dead and covers 12.5 acres (5.1 ha).

On a wall of the terrace, 294 names of those missing in action are inscribed (rosettes mark those since recovered and identified).
