Take the Arlington National Cemetery Survey: VFW report 8-11-17
RE: https://www.vfw.org/actioncorpsweekly
Take the Arlington National Cemetery Survey:
Every cemetery has a lifespan, and the hallowed ground that is Arlington National Cemetery is no exception. Based on current projections, Arlington will run out of burial space in about 25 years unless changes are made to restrict eligibility, expand the geographical footprint of the cemetery, or some combination of the above. Via Public Law 114-58, Congress directed the Secretary of the Army to examine ways to extend the life expectancy of the cemetery well into the future, and the report released earlier this year identified a number of options ranging from continuing the status quo to restricting interments to Medal of Honor recipients only. The Army has not yet taken a position regarding the recommendations. Instead, the Army is opening a national dialogue to help ensure all military personnel and veterans are aware of the challenges facing Arlington National Cemetery. Read the report and take the survey.
