Question I AM THE EX WIFE OF A MAN THAT SERVED 8 YEARS IN THE NAVY.MY QUESTION IS CAN I BE BURIED IN THE VETERANS CEMETERY ? WE WERE LEGALLY MARRIED FOR 9 YEARS.
Answer Are you a veteran as well? If not I would say most likely you would not be eligible. As a general rule spouses are not eligible except in some cases where they use double depth graves. But just to make sure contact the local national cemetery in your area.
