History
Where Medal of Honor recipients rest
97 cemeteries in 39 states and territories where the VA lists recipients as interred or memorialized.
The Medal of Honor is the highest United States award for valor in action against an enemy force. Each cemetery below has, on its own VA page, a list of recipients who are buried or memorialized there. Follow a link to read the names, the actions for which the medal was awarded, and where the VA records each grave.
This index is built from the “Notable burials” text on each cemetery’s page at the VA National Cemetery Administration, retrieved November 11, 2026. It covers only cemeteries in this directory and only what the VA publishes there, so it is not a complete roll: recipients are also buried at Arlington National Cemetery, in overseas cemeteries, and in private and state cemeteries. For the VA’s own account, see its Medal of Honor history.
