National Cemeteries in Florida
Eligibility
Burial in a national cemetery is authorized for any person whose death occurred in the line of duty while on active duty, active duty for training, or while hospitalized or receiving treatment at the expense of the U.S. Government for any injury or disease contracted in the line of duty. Interment in a national cemetery is also authorized for any veteran whose active duty service was terminated by a discharge under conditions other than dishonorable. Dependents, un-remarried surviving spouses and minor children are also eligible for burial.
How to Apply
The burial of a veteran or eligible dependent in a national cemetery should normally be handled through a funeral director, or the director at the national cemetery located near the veteran’s home.
