S 1100 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A bill to amend title 38, United States Code, to provide for the inclusion of certain emblems on headstones and markers furnished for veterans by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, and for other purposes.

This bill allows veterans' families to include specific military emblems on headstones and markers provided by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. It requires the VA and Defense Department to create a list of approved emblems, including unit insignia (like division-level badges) and combat or skill badges earned by the veteran. The VA must establish this list within 180 days of the bill's enactment and make the emblems available for use on headstones within 360 days. The change applies only to headstones and markers furnished after the bill becomes law.
