Willamette National Cemetery, War cemetery in Portland, United States

Willamette National Cemetery is a United States National Cemetery located about 10 miles southeast of Portland, Oregon. It covers 269.4 acres across Multnomah and Clackamas Counties and is administered by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs.

Willamette National Cemetery opened on December 14, 1950, after plans for a military cemetery in the Portland area began as early as 1941. The State of Oregon donated 102 acres for the site, and another 100 acres were added in 1952.

The cemetery is a place of remembrance where families and veterans gather for memorial services, especially on Memorial Day. The Blue Star Memorial Highway and the Korean War Memorial are focal points for visitors who come to pay respects.

The grounds are open daily for visitors, and the main entrance is easy to find from the nearby highway. A car is the most convenient way to get there, and the site has paved roads and paths that make it accessible for most visitors.

The cemetery is home to a Korean War Memorial dedicated to the 283 people from Oregon who fought and died in that war. This memorial is one of the features that make the site a place of specific local remembrance.
