Veterans - Gravesite Locator

I stumbled across this site the other day while looking for my grandfather's father who I knew was buried in a veteran's cemetery in Maine, it's the US Department of Veterans Affairs Gravesite Locator.

If you know which cemetery the veteran is buried at, this site will help you locate the gravesite within that cemetery (these cemeteries can be quite large so this could save you a lot of walking), including a map of the cemetery showing sections and nearby roads.

If you don't know which cemetery the veteran is buried at, enter as much information as you know, hopefully you may get lucky and find who you're looking for. Good luck!
