  • Rome Monument specializes in designing, manufacturing and delivering headstones, markers and monuments that designate the resting place of a veteran who served in our Armed Forces.  These can complement or take the place of a government-issued headstone. 
  • Because the US Government (VA) cannot issue a headstone or marker for a spouse or dependent buried in a private cemetery, Rome Monument sells these bronze military grave markers.
  • Military headstone inscriptions frequently include abbreviations that denote the branch of service, war service and awards. The ranks included the Air Force, Army, Army Air Corps, Army Air Forces, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, Merchant Marines and Navy. Click here for a list of the most commonly inscribed abbreviations placed on Government-furnished headstones and markers. Browse the pictures here to see examples of military headstone inscriptions, military headstone designs, military headstone abbreviations, military headstone symbols and military headstone quotes. The Department of Veterans Affairs' (VA) National Cemetery Administration maintains 136 national cemeteries in 40 states (and Puerto Rico) as well as 33 soldier's lots and monument sites. Click here for a list of national cemeteries maintained by the VA.
  • VA to Let Vets Pre-Select Cemetery Burials Before Death: Published By Military.com, Written By Amy Bushatz - Excerpt: A rule change at the Veterans Affairs Department will allow veterans to apply for burial in national cemeteries before their death, rather than requiring family members to apply on their behalf after it.  Veteran burial benefits previously were approved at the "time of need." For families, that meant waiting until after the veteran died to apply for the benefits via fax or email by sending in a copy of the veteran's DD-214 or separation documents and then following up by phone.  The rule change instead allows veterans to be approved for burial in a VA national cemetery "pre-need," or before death, through a form submitted by fax, email or mail. The form can be filled out by the veteran or by someone else on his or her behalf.  More than four million people are buried in VA cemeteries. More >
  • Rome Monument also sells veterans grave markers to members of the United States Armed Forces who do not want to go through the process of ordering a free headstone from the government.
  • These bronze, granite, or bronze and granite grave markers are typically designed to copy or duplicate the style provided by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).
  • We also design unique cemetery monuments that incorporate military and armed forces themes, emblems and symbolism.
  • You can order a bronze or granite grave marker that matches the design of veteran's grave marker or U.S. Military headstone for a veteran, spouse or dependent.

Matthews Bronze is the same foundry that creates the bronze markers provided to veterans.  This leader in cemetery products is the oldest and most reputable bronze producer in the United States. They set the benchmark in bronze memorialization and commemorative plaques. Over the years, they have manufactured famous works such as Elvis Presley’s memorial at Graceland and the plaques at the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York.
