In an effort to commemorate the service, achievements, and sacrifice of the members of the U.S. armed forces buried or memorialized at our sites world-wide, we offer a number of services to the public.
- Artifact Collections: ABMC is dedicated to ensuring intellectual access to artifact collections such as historic furnishings and decorative items, rare books, and historic flags. Due to the fragile nature of many items and the geographic scope of the agency, physical access may be limited as ABMC identifies, evaluates, and catalogs collection items into the public facing electronic database under development. Questions about accessing collections items can be sent to our Collections & Preservation staff
- Education Program: ABMC is committed to developing quality resources across disciplines for teachers to use in classrooms. These materials illuminate the service, experiences and sacrifice of those honored at ABMC cemeteries and memorials.
- Family Assistance: Receive assistance from an ABMC staff member upon your arrival at the cemetery. Staff members are available to escort family to gravesite locations, assist with photographs, and give a guided personal tour of the site. Visit our cemetery pages for specific cemetery contact information.
- Coming soon: ABMC Flower Program: ABMC will introduce its new Flower Program in 2026. This customer-centric flower delivery service will offer both web-based and traditional ordering and floral arrangement options to commemorate the servicemembers laid to rest within our cemeteries. As part of this new service offering, ABMC staff will place floral arrangements at specified locations and offer customers the option to receive a graveside photo showing the arrangement in place. While the new process is in development, you may continue to order flowers directly from local and international florists and request photos of floral arrangements at the grave site.
