usnret, both of my parents are at that cemetery. My mother (non-military)passed first, and my dad (passed a year ago May) was buried beside her, per his wishes.He was a Korean war vet. He told me that he had made arrangements, but I guess he intended to and never got around to it. It was difficult to make the arrangements while emotionally upset. It's a beautiful cemetery, and planning ahead makes things easier for your family, at a difficult time. My dad had no idea he was going to die when he did, he thought he had a back injury, in reality his kidneys failed. Good for you for thinking ahead!
