Website Content Update

3/19/2025

Arlington National Cemetery is actively working to update our website and Education Program content in compliance with executive orders issued by the president and Department of Defense instructions. 

We want to clarify that no service members have been permanently removed from the “Notable Graves” section of our website. These pages highlight stories of historically significant individuals with accuracy and in commemoration of their service and sacrifice. All profiles of individuals from the previously listed categories “African American History,” “Hispanic American History” and “Women’s History” can be found in other categories, such as “Prominent Military Figures,” “Politics and Government," or "Science, Technology and Engineering" (to name a few examples), based on the person’s historical contributions to our nation.

All Notable Graves profiles can be found here: Arlington National Cemetery > Explore > Notable Graves.
