Sicily Rome American Cemetery and Memorial, Nettuno

I am so proud to be an American. I had the chance to visit Sicily-Rome American Cemetery and Memorial last week and was amazed. It is such a beautiful place. I took the train from Rome to Nettuno. About 90 min train ride through the beautiful Italian countryside. The walk to the cemetery took me about 20 minutes. The visitors center is stunning. I have been to several American cemeteries and they do a tremendous job here with the history and memorials to various soldiers. The cemetery itself is stunning. The grounds are beautiful and well kept. Very, very clean. I love the Chapel and gardens. The pond with trees and a memorial at the center is very peaceful. I am so glad I took the time to visit this cemetery and memorial. It made me proud. Especially with the fact a few of my Uncles served in WWII (American side) and my grandparents came to the United States from Sicily (San Cataldo).

Amazing cemetery, a place where you can learn about the Anzio landing and fallen soldiers. It's really well kept, basically perfect which is really impressive. I suggest that people from both Italy and the US visit this beautyfull place.
