Summary

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend its regulations related to the provision of government-furnished headstones, markers, and medallions. These proposed revisions would clarify eligibility for headstones, markers, or medallions, would establish replacement criteria for such headstones, markers, and medallions consistent with VA policy, would define the term "unmarked grave" consistent with VA policy, and would generally reorganize and simplify current regulatory language for ease of understanding.

The agency’s own summary, as published.
