DIRECT INTERMENT PROGRAM

Although it doesn’t occur very often, there are situations in which a veteran, or spouse, is laid to rest at Quantico National Cemetery WITHOUT anyone (other than the cemetery staff and the hearse driver) being present.  It’s referred to as a “Direct Interment” burial, and/or a burial without attendees.

Volunteers are needed to help stand for these veterans and spouses, and ensure they receive the recognition they deserve.  For more information on participating in the program, contact Scott Haller (legionridersp28@gmail.com)
