Meet Our Volunteer Photographers

We are very grateful to our Volunteer Photographers. Each individual has donated their time and talent to help us honor our 303rd Veterans who are Missing in Action or Interred in Overseas Cemeteries. In addition to those shown below, several others also volunteered their services. We have had numerous individual Gravesite and Wall of Missing photographs sent by family and friends of our veteran's. We sincerely appreciate the overwhelming support for this project.

Jan-Willem van de Griendt Netherlands, Ardennes, Henri-Chapelle J-W has adopted the grave of Dick L. Libbee at the Netherlands American Cemetery. He spent several weekends driving many miles to photograph the graves and names in three cemeteries.	Robin Beeby Cambridge American Cemetery Robin Beeby is our United Kingdom Representative. Although he had previously photographed all our graves in Cambridge, he repeated the work to provide us with digital images.
Rockwell and Deborah Bourlier Blake Lorraine American Cemetery Debbie is a cousin of T/Sgt Donald W. Bourlier. Bourlier was a substitute crewman flying with the 427th BS Peter Cureton Crew. Nine of the ten men on the crew were Killed in Action on November 21, 1944. Debbie and her husband visited the Lorraine American Cemetery on Memorial Day 2004. Her generous offer to photograph the 303rd BG graves at Lorraine was the inspiration for this project.	Arnaud Beinat Lorraine American Cemetery Arnaud is a journalist specializing in security and historical subjects. He has been interested in WWII since he was a child. He wrote, "I am living in a country liberated by Gen Patton's Third Army. In each town, there is a 'Patton's Street', 'XX Corps Avenue', 'General Walker Place', etc. So we are very concerned by the sacrifice of the US soldiers in Lorraine." He has adopted two graves there.
Margaret Keating Normandy American Cemetery Margaret has been a friend of the 303rd BGA for quite some time. She helps us with translations from German to English. Margaret and her grandson traveled to France and photographed the Normandy graves for us.	Jean and Margaret Heesen-Schoch Normandy and Brittany Cemeteries Margaret is a niece of Philip M. Schoch, Killed in Action on 09 Nov 1944. Jean and Margaret visited Normandy on June 6, 2004, the 60th Anniversary of D-Day, and photographed the 303rd graves. They changed their plans and went out of their way to also provide us with the Brittany photographs. They commented on how well they were received at both cemeteries. Their photo above was taken at the D-Day Anniversary.
