Military Funeral Honors
The local military honor groups are comprised of a combination of active duty members and full-time reserve members who provide military honors to all veterans buried at Dallas-Fort Worth National Cemetery.  On occasion, members of veteran service organizations also participate in providing supplemental military honors by providing a three-person rifle detail or live bugler.

After a cemetery staff member confirms your service time please schedule military honors by contacting the following:

• For retired Marine Corps Only, phone 866-826-3628.
• All other services call 325-696-1597 or 325-696-5532 and fax the honorable discharge document to 325-696-5707.
