Members of Congress are calling on federal officials to take down or alter headstones at two national cemeteries that contain swastikas or messages honoring Adolf Hitler.

Two graves at Fort Sam Houston National Cemetery in San Antonio depict an iron cross with a swastika at its center, along with an inscription that reads:"He died far from his home for the Führer, people and fatherland." Another grave at Fort Douglas Post Cemetery in Salt Lake City depicts a Knight's cross with oak leaves and a swastika, according to The Salt Lake Tribune.
