Mainly fallen soldiers from the 1st World War, but there are also a number from the 2nd World War. What is special is that a Chinese migrant (Ma Yi Pao) is also buried there. He was the only one admitted to the French army and was actually allowed to carry weapons.

The National Military Cemetery of Vic-sur-Aisne, created in 1921, is an impressive necropolis containing the remains of 3,046 French soldiers, mainly killed during the Battles of the Aisne in World War I. Of these, 932 are buried in two ossuaries, and seven others died during World War II.

Anecdote: Among the thousands of French soldiers lies Ma Yi Pao, a young Chinese legionnaire who died of his wounds on September 2, 1918 at the age of 24. He was one of the few Chinese who actually served as a soldier in the French Foreign Legion, while most of his compatriots were deployed as laborers. His grave (plot F, grave 59) is unique: he is the only officially recognized Chinese soldier who died for France in this war.
