I'm about to be taking a trip around Europe and plan on spending a day at the cemeteries in Normandy and Bastogne. Does anybody have a list of Aggies who are buried in Bastogne? I've been able to find a list for Normandy, but every search I've done for Bastogne has come up with the "Texas Aggies go to War" exhibit that was there a couple of years ago. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just went to Bastogne in July 2017. Nobody is buried there.

There was a cemetery near Foy but they relocated all of the remains to the American Cemetery in Luxembourg. I highly recommend visiting it.

There is also a German cemetery near the American one. I highly recommend visiting it too. Interesting compare and contrast between the two.

Check the 1949 Directory of Former Students - has a list by class of ALL Aggies who died while in service and where they died !

Probably Cushing has an online copy .

In a similar vein the German cemetery at La Cambe in Normandy is a good visit as well.
