Military Burials

Greenwood Cemetery has great respect for our military veterans. With four different military sections, Greenwood is the resting place of veterans from every war our country has been involved in. From the Revolutionary War to the Conflict in the Middle East, we are honored to serve our military heroes.

Veteran Interments

Our current section for veteran interments is Vet West. This section is located in the Northwest area of the Historic Side of Greenwood, directly across from the Public Receiving Vault.
