Summary[edit]

Description
English: Tunis, Tunisia (Nov. 17, 2006) - The Marine Corps color guard assigned to the American Embassy in Tunis marches past a corridor of Tunisian honor guards while retiring the colors during a wreath-laying ceremony at the North African American Cemetery in Tunis. The Veterans Day ceremony was postponed by a few days in order to be performed during the port visit of dock landing ship USS Whidbey Island (LSD 41). Whidbey Island's visit marked the first port call of a major U.S. Navy ship in Tunisia since 2001. The North Africa American Cemetery is one of 24 American cemeteries on foreign soil and covers 27 acres of land between the Mediterranean and the Bay of Tunis. Established in 1948, the cemetery holds the graves of 2,841 service members who died while serving during the World War II North Africa campaign.
