BASTOGNE

The following day we traveled to our next stop, Luxembourg.  On the way we visited Bastogne, Belgium, in the center of action during World War II's Battle of the Bulge.  Bastogne is the location of a major--and well done--War Museum and military cemetery, where several thousand American troops who fought in the battle are buried.

General Patton's grave is located in that cemetery, though his death actually occurred after the end of the war.
