Here is the grave site of Eddie Slovik who was shot for desertion.
He was buried in France, in a reserved section of the American cemetery with 94 American soldiers executed for the crimes of rape and murder. Slovik's remains were returned to Michigan in 1987, after he was pardoned by President Jimmy Carter. Forty-two years after Slovik's execution, his remains are reburied next to his wife, Antoinette.
