RE: Remember, Honor and Teach: Laying the Wreath

in Silver Bloggers2 years ago

I have been to the Netherlands American Cemetery, just outside of Maastricht, in a village called Margraten (spelling?)

Arlington National Cemetery's eligibility requirements for burial and inurnment are different from other national cemeteries that are maintained by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Eligibility for in-ground burial at Arlington National Cemetery is the most stringent of all U.S. national cemeteries. However, most veterans who have at least one day of active service (other than for training) and an honorable discharge are eligible for above-ground inurnment. Eligibility is determined at the time of need.

Thanks for stopping by!
