CAMBRIDGE CEMETERY is situated three miles west of the university city of
Cambridge, England on Highway A-1303 and sixty miles north of London. It takes about
four and a quarter hours driving from London.
From the flag platform near the main entrance the great mall with its reflecting pool
stretches eastward. From this mall the headstones in the burial area form a sweeping
curve across the green lawn. Along the south side of the mall is the Wall of the
Missing. At its far end is the chapel containing two huge military maps, stained
glass windows bearing the State Seals and military decorations, and its mosaic ceiling
with a memorial to the Dead of our Air Forces.
