Very solemn, respectful spot on the edge of the river. Some services were taking place on the morning of our visit so did not see all of the cemetery.

Such a beautiful place and very well kept. This was my first visit there. Under the circumstances, of course, I hope it is the last.

Worth the visit. Take the time to go and take your family. We had a homeschool history lesson. Hard to get into, but easy to find.

It is well kept and I am glad they treat our deceased vets like royalty here cause they gace all in some form or fashion.

Over the past fifteen years that I has visited Fort Smith when attending conferences I have enjoyed my walks through the National Cemetery. I always find it very serene and solemn. I am humbled when I think of the service these men and women have given to our country and I think of my father's military service during WWII. The precision in which the headstones and grave markers are laid out in the cemetery are a thing of beauty.

My father is buried at this Cemetery. It is laid out a little confusingly, but there is a computer with grave finder.....so it helps you find a specific stone.

We simply drove through the beautiful grounds. It was time well spent. We had learned on the trolley ride that the larger stones were for the higher ranked officers, but that has changed and now everyone receives the same stone.

The care of all grounds, certainly brings dignity and respect for our veterans. Don't miss the placement of flags on the special dates, good taste .

feel the spirits of those buried here as you pursue the names to the unknowns and pay respects to those that shaped our futures
