At veterans cemeteries, both the land and headstones are the property of the government and as such there are rules specific to the care and maintenance. For example, no additions or alterations can be made to the headstone or marker, no artificial flowers are permitted at all, and visiting hours are stricter. To find out what the best times to visit are, contact us at 773-434-5200.
