German prisoners digging graves

This cemetery was a little west of present cemetery, built several years later. Its construction began in June 11 and the bodies were transferred there from July 20, 1944 since the first interim cemetery located at the foot of the cliff between Vierville and St. Lawrence on White Dog.
