Antietam National Cemetery, Sharpsburg, Maryland. Originally dedicated as a resting place for those fallen in the 1862 battle, the cemetery has continued to serve later veterans and their spouses. Several internments have even taken place in this century, even though it was officially closed in 1953. Of the 5,000 people buried here, over 1,800 are unidentified.
