Currently VLM includes Veterans laid to rest in private cemeteries since 1996 who received a VA-provided headstone, flat marker, niche cover, or medallion.</p> <p>Individual Veteran profile pages are populated with military service and cemetery information. Publicly available information gathered from VA records includes service branch and seal, dates of birth and death, rank, war period, decorations, emblem of belief, and cemetery information.</p> <p>Interactive features allow family, friends, and the public to submit Tributes (comments), images, biographical information, and historical documents; create their Veteran's military service and personal achievements timeline; and generate a Word Cloud that describes their Veteran. The site also allows visitors to share Veteran profile pages by email and post them to social media, and users can "Follow a Veteran" to receive email alerts when new content is added to that Veteran's page.</p> <div style="border-color: #003F72;" class="well well-sm"> <div class="embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/fNcrhBoqhok?rel=0" class="embed-responsive-item" title="Remembering Veteran Best Friends Laid Side by Side this Veterans Day" frameborder="1" allowfullscreen="" loading="lazy"></iframe></div> <div style="background-color: #ffffff;"> <h3 style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 120%; font-weight: bold; padding-left: 5px;">Watch: Remembering Veteran Best Friends Laid Side by Side this Veterans Day</h3> <p style="padding-left: 5px;">1st Lt.
