American Battle Monuments Commission
US federal agency that states 26 permanent American military cemeteries and 31 federal memorials, monuments and markers in 17 countries, honouring more than 200,000 fallen service members. People are searched through its Burial Database at weremember.abmc.gov; the footer also links a World War II Registry at wwiiregistry.abmc.gov. The home page gives no Second World War count and no step-by-step search instructions. It covers Americans buried or commemorated overseas and does not hold service files, which are with the National Archives.
