    Fort Meade Garrison Commander Col. Michael A. Sapp, Brig. Gen. Stefano Messina, and Rear Adm. Axel Ristau pay their respects to a fallen Italian soldier during the German-Italian wreath-laying ceremony at the post cemetery, November 20, 2022. In September 1943, the first shipment of 1,632 Italian and 58 German prisoners arrived at Fort Meade. Some of those prisoners died during their captivity and were buried at the installation.
