Womer Cemetery, a small churchyard cemetery in rural north-central Kansas. The small stake with a disk on top to the right of the headstone is the medallion of the American Legion, so presumably he died in France, in what was then optimistically termed "the" Great War. From remote rural Kansas to a battlefield in France--there's nothing new about globalization.
