Grave Marker Update

Veterans Affairs said it would change contractor procedures to prevent grave markers from being moved to the wrong spots. Undersecretary Steve Muro outlined the changes to members of Congress. Contractors would be told to leave stones nearby when renovating gravesites, and VA staff would conduct daily inspections. VA has found 249 mismarked graves among the 1.5 million it's inspected. Most mistakes occurred at San Francisco National Cemetery and Golden Gate National Cemetery in California
