This is a hard question because a miscarriage is a very personal time between husband and wife.

If a 72-year-old veteran is convicted of attempted murder in the 1st degree does it nullify his military funeral entitlement?

Considering the veteran's age, and the fact it was attempted murder (old age can cause many diseases that can make the elderly become violent towards usually a mate) and he has served his country with honor, then it's highly unlikely that they will nullify any entitlements due him re a military funeral.

Just to be sure, contact "Veteran's Affairs" and ask them. If there should be some problems then find a lawyer to see if this old veteran can be buried in a military fashion because he has served his country well.

AnswerAs is the case in any legal issue, there is no universal course or routine of action. It depends a lot on the circumstances of the incident and additionally his prior criminal record. If for example he served the Air Force for 30 years and had no history of chronic arrests or violence then his latest conviction would have no bearing on his final arrangements.

On the other hand, if he merely served a few years during his early 20's for instance and has led a life of violent, sociopathic, and irresponsible acts then regardless of what he's entitled to he should not be buried with any special honors, if not less than average especially if this murder attempt ruined someone's life. Basically, it's hard to say but neither the family or the veteran can make this decision. It is at the discretion of the regional VA administrator and the government.
