It isn’t her decision to make. He will NOT be buried there per Army Regulations. And in recent years those veterans who can be buried at Arlington are being limited to combat veterans and those killed in action.

That’s kinda what I thought. It’s getting harder and harder to get into a military cemetery. I don’t think they would allow anybody to just willy nilly pick who gets in.

That is my understanding as well. I believe that ONLY KIA as well as combat vets or maybe even those who have been wounded in combat can be buried in Arlington. They are simply running out of room.

Arlington Is quite beautiful and it is a very moving place to visit.

Of course the little bastard won’t be buried in Arlington. The only thing dumber than that woman’s “offer” was the MSM bothering to cover it.

But, on the basis of what, exactly, is your comment that Arlington is limiting burials to KIA? that certainly isn’t what the regulations published on the ANC website say.
