Arlington sets monumentation for future gravesites in Section 55
7/16/2012 12:00:00 AM
Arlington National Cemetery has surveyed and marked future gravesite locations in Section 55 to accommodate in ground interment of caskets and urns. Section 55 along Eisenhower Drive has been designated to accommodate casketed remains. Survey crews measured the section and set blank headstones in unoccupied gravesites as guides to ensure the precise alignment of headstones. The guides will be removed as people are buried in these locations.
