From Camp Colt and stateside training centers to the battlefields of the Western Front, Gettysburg National Cemetery is the final resting place for over two dozen Americans who died during World War I.

This page contains stories of these Americans. Park staff will add stories as we continue to research and learn about these brave individuals who served our nation during the First World War.
