A l'issue de la guerre, les autorités
américaines dressent le plan de toutes les sépultures de leurs soldats sur le
territoire français, pour en assurer sinon le transfert, du moins la
conservation. Nous avons déjà utilisé le plan américain du cimetière militaire
de Blâmont pour localiser, puis confirmer, la position du
cimetière allemand de Blâmont.
Voici 15 cartes de sépultures de l'est du Lunévillois (zone Vezouze, Cirey...),
dans leurs versions originales et dans un retraitement graphique .
