The exhumation of a Medal of Honor recipient and his reburial June 4 at a national cemetery began with an annual event to lay holiday wreaths on the graves of American veterans.
Michelle Cebe, a coordinator for Wreaths Across America at Kansas's Leavenworth National Cemetery, has a personal mission to ensure that all Medal of Honor recipients in her region receive a wreath every holiday. Several honorees are interred at Leavenworth, and two are buried at Mount Calvary Cemetery in Lansing, Kansas.
Then, veteran George Westbrook, one of Cebe's volunteers, discovered a third -- in a dilapidated section of Mount Calvary considered a paupers' burial ground.
