Nearly 155 years since the first national celebration of what would become Memorial Day took place at Arlington National Cemetery (ANC), a significant threat remains to the eligibility for interment with military honors at the hallowed site – a threat MOAA needs your help to stop.

The proposed federal rule for an ANC eligibility reduction still looms, but support for a long-term solution is growing. And just as the Grand Army of the Republic – an association of Civil War veterans – championed the cause of Decoration Day, MOAA continues its work alongside The Military Coalition in the fight to preserve honors that matter intensely to those who serve and have served, their families, and their survivors.
