Biloxi National Cemetery, Military cemetery at Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Biloxi, United States
The Biloxi National Cemetery spans 54 acres near Keesler Air Force Base, containing over 27,000 burial sites for military service members and their families.
The cemetery began operations in March 1934 with the burial of Private Edgar A. Ross from the Tennessee Infantry as its first interment.
A 30-foot memorial monument erected in 1941 stands within the cemetery grounds to commemorate all individuals who served in the armed forces.
The cemetery maintains daily access from sunrise to sunset, while administrative offices operate Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM.
Six unidentified soldiers from the Mexican-American War rest in the cemetery following their discovery and reinterment due to beach erosion at their original location.
