About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

In August 1995, to commemorate the heroes, China built this Monument to the Aviator Martyrs in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression at Nanjing. The names of more than 3,000 martyrs, including 870 Chinese, 2,186 Americans and 236 soldiers of the former Soviet Union, were initially inscribed on the monument in Chinese, English and Russian. The names of an additional 900 Chinese and American aviators were added later for lost airmen who they determined should also be commemorated.
This monument and associated names on the tablets, although located next to each other, is not to be confused with the nearby museum and the separate cemetery that were both also established at Nanjing.
