After World War II, eligibility for burial in national cemeteries was extended to all veterans who served honorably in the U.S. Armed Forces, regardless of the length of service or the time period of service. This included those who served during wartime and peacetime, as well as members of the Reserves and National Guard who were called to active duty. Additionally, certain family members of eligible veterans, such as spouses and dependent children, were also granted burial rights in national cemeteries.

What did soldiers do with dead soldiers?

{| |- | In most cases, the bodies were buried on the battlefield. Some of the soldiers, particularly officers would be sent home for burial. It was more likely to happen if the battle took place near a railroad line that was controlled by their side. Many of the National Cemeteries in use today originated near Civil War Battle Fields, or near places that served as hospitals. Arlington National Cemetery and Gettysburg National Cemetery are two such places. |}
