520 |a During the spring of 1985, the Reagan administration was faced with two closely related issues regarding historical memory and the uses of history in American statecraft. It is well known that in May 1985, Ronald Reagan, amidst great controversy visited Bitburg cemetery where among the German war dead were the graves of some 49 members of the Waffen-SS. It is less well known that at the same moment his administration was opposing passage of a congressional resolution which would have commemorated the 70th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. Far more than the memory of two genocides was at stake in these nearlyconcurrent events. This essay tells the tale of a serious lapse in political morality.
