Not quite the same, those were chosen by the indivdiual (or in the absence of a directive, by their next of kin ) to represent the faith of the fallen warriors interned there. The government didn't impose them on the families.
From the links above you can view not only Christian symbols, but Jewish, Wican, and Atheist symbology.
