The shutdown doesn't just affect people in the US.
Since the shutdown all the 11 American military cemeteries in France are closed.
Veterans, families and visitors cannot visit the graves, and the employees (both French and American) can no longer maintain those sacred sites as they work with reduced teams.
Sad, especially for the veterans and families who came all the way from the US to visit those monuments.
No congressman here to open the gates for them.
