Reviews
"Clean, organized place. I'm glad they hold the place to a high standard. I have two family members buried here, there's some peace of mind knowing they will be honored well here."
"Remember the fallen heroes! A place of honor respect and support for family members! Very peaceful and beautiful cemetery! God bless our fallen heroes!"
"This military cemetery on base is absolutely beautiful. They put the flag at 1/2 staff from 9 am to 3 pm to honor any veteran that dies that day, regardless if retired or active duty. I watched with great honor and respect while the soldier was raising it back up at 3 pm. The cemetery has grown so much in the past 26 years my dad has been buried there that it is almost full. What an honor and privilege to be standing surrounded by all these brave men and women that protected our great nation. May God bless their living family members always as the rest in eternal peace. I salute each one of them!"
"We buried my father in law at Fort Sam Houston. He was a Navy veteran and the service was absolutely fantastic. The service director and service men were top notch and respectful. The ceremony was honoring and emotional. In addition the cemetery is beautiful and well kept! Great place for my father in laws final resting place."
