Welcome to Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery's Wreaths Across America Page.
On December 16, 2023 at 12:00 pm, Wreaths Across America will be at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery to Remember and Honor our veterans. In the Rostrum area behind the main gates on the east side of the cemetery, we will be conducting our formal ceremonial opening event.
At 10:00 am in sections S and V located on the west side of the cemetery we will be laying Remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country's fallen heroes and saying the name of each and every veteran aloud.

Or, if you would like to volunteer to participate in the wreath laying ceremony, please click the “Volunteer” button next to the cemetery name below, and don't forget to click the "Invite" button to invite your friends and family to join you.
