Pictures and text by Mark R. Hatlie
These pictures were taken near Babite (close to Riga) during the first week of September, 2007. This is a Sammelfriedhof or "collection cemetery" recently set up by the German war graves commission. They collected the remains of German soldiers from the area and buried them together here.
