Brigadier General Dieter Bareihs, Director of Plans, Programs and Analysis Air Forces in Europe and Air Forces Africa, lays a wreath during a Memorial Day remembrance ceremony at St. Mihiel American Cemetery, France, May 28, 2017. This year, Memorial Day is especially meaningful because 2017 marks the centennial of entry into World War I. In the 17 months of participation in the war, million Americans served in the war and 116,516 lost their lives fighting. Tens of thousands are buried in military cemeteries here in Europe.
