    A white marble military grave marker in the foreground of an American military cemetery, likely from World War I. The closest cross bears the inscription for Second Lieutenant Randolph Charles Stocker, 39th Infantry, 4th Division, from Montana, who died September 28, 1918. Rows of identical white crosses extend into the background on a well-maintained green lawn scattered with autumn leaves.
