Re-enlistment Ceremony at Luxembourg American Cemetery

Published March 20, 2017

During Women’s History Month, we honor both the service and sacrifice of all women who have served in in the military. Last week, Luxembourg American Cemetery welcomed SSgt. Diane Sanchez for her re-enlistment ceremony at the grave of Gen. George Patton.  Having served for seven years already, we thank Sanchez for her continuing service and for choosing this fitting site that honors those who came before her, and paid the ultimate sacrifice.
