The following is a list of American Military graves located in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. These graves are maintained by Marines who are assigned to the Dominican Republic. This is not part of their job but they do it anyway. They look after each of these fallen soldiers so their memory and their graves will never be forgotten. To these men and women, Thank You. What you do means more than you realize. Semper Fi
If you see someone listed here and would like a picture of their headstone please contact me.
