the potential replacement marble stone for the sarcophagus already

and convey ANC's history, including Section 60 gravesite mementos, and 
improve the quality of visitors' experiences now and for generations to 
come. The primary purpose of the Honor subcommittee is to accomplish an 
independent assessment of methods to address the long-term future of 
the Army national cemeteries, including how best to extend the active 
burials and what ANC should focus on once all available space is used.

proposals for commemorative monuments. The Honor Subcommittee will
