Arlington

Its my understanding that veterans that have been awarded the Purple Heart can still request to be burried at Arlington National Cemetery. I believe you must be cremated. I have questions like "what if your wife were to die first" what would the process be? Who would you contact. Would like to know all the facts.....
The wife and I have started to discuss this subject and have leaned in this direction, we just need answers and don't know where to turn.
