During difficult times, like the current public health crisis, it is all too easy to forget to honor those who have given so much for our country.

The Georgia Department of Veterans Service has not forgotten our departed heroes and would like to remind everyone of those who may be gone but are not forgotten.

While formal military honors are not available right now, our cemetery staff continue to inter them with the utmost dignity and care. The notes of Taps continue to echo throughout the cemeteries during the interment and hand salutes are rendered by the staff.

This page provides an opportunity to remember those veterans interred during this crisis and reflects interments in both of our state veterans memorial cemeteries starting on April 1. The GDVS will add the names; branch of service and location of burial for each veteran interred in a state cemetery as burials are completed.
