Headstones for Veterans Buried with Loved Ones: New Rules

This act allows for a headstone to be provided for cremated veterans interred with other eligible individuals. This means families of veterans can now have a single headstone for two people, making it easier to commemorate their loved ones.
Key points
Ability to obtain a headstone for a cremated veteran, even if an urn or commemorative plaque was previously provided.
The headstone can commemorate both the veteran and another eligible individual buried at the same site.
The cost of the headstone will not increase due to the inclusion of information about two individuals.
