CIMETIÈRE MILITAIRE DE BROOKWOOD Surrey, Royaume-Uni
Brookwood est environ 30 miles de Londres (suivre le M3 à Bagshot et puis le A322). Le cimetière militaire de Brookwood se trouve sur le A324 près du village de Pirbright. Le cimetière militaire de Brookwood appartient à la Commonwealth War Grave Commission et est le plus grand cimetière militaire du Commonwealth au Royaume-Uni, couvrant environ 37 acres.
En 1917, une partie du cimetère de Brookwood (la nécropole de Londres) a été réservée à l'inhumation d'hommes et de femmes des forces du Commonwealth et d'Américains qui étaient morts dans la région de Londres, nombre d'entre eux à la suite de blessures de guerre. Ce site a été agrandi par la suite pour accueillir les victimes de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Les tombes des victimes alliées se trouvent dans les sections américaine, belge, tchèque, hollandaise, française et polonaise. Il y a aussi une section allemande et une section italienne où les prisonniers de guerre sont enterrés.
Pour plus d’informations, visitez la Commission des sépultures de guerre du Commonwealth (site disponible en anglais seulement).
