Veterans - Kings of the Hill

"Time will not dim the glory of their deeds"
- General of the Armies John J. Pershing

The American Battle Monuments Commission (ABMC) was established by Congress in 1923 to commemorate the service, achievements, and sacrifice of U.S. armed forces where they have served overseas since 1917, and within the U.S. when directed by public law.

The ABMC commemorative mission is reflected in 24 overseas military cemeteries that serve as resting places for almost 125,000 American war dead; on Tablets of the Missing that memorialize more than 94,000 U.S. servicemen and women; and through 25 memorials, monuments and markers.

You are invited to explore the information and databases available on this web site, and to visit our cemeteries and memorials. VISIT...

USA - King of the Hill? (also known as "King of the Mountain" or "King of the Castle"), is a game, the object of which is to stay on top of a large hill or pile (or any other designated area) as the "King of the Hill". Other players attempt to knock the current King off the pile and take their place, thus becoming the new King of the Hill.

The way the "king" can be removed from the hill depends largely on the rules determined by the players before the game starts. Ordinarily pushing is the most common way of removing the king from the hill, but there are significantly rougher variations where punching or kicking is allowed.

HONOR THOSE THAT RESPOND AND SACRIFICED TO COUNTER THE PUNCHING AND KICKING OF YOUR LIBERTIES AND FREEDOMS, AND TO PRESERVE SAME.
