I have not read this book yet but I plan to. I have read a similar book about this cemetery called "The Margraten Boys" by Peter Schrijvers.

It is a great book, really enjoyed reading it, highly recommend it to anyone. It covers the history of the cemetery and the grave adoption program from the beginning until present. Stories of many of the soldiers buried there are recounted. The stories of the grave adopters making contact and establishing relationships with relatives of the fallen soldiers are especially touching. You really have to take your hat off to the Dutch for the care and dedication they have shown in honoring these heroes.
