[Virginia Dave]

Does anyone know the procedure to obtain a CSA headstone for an ancestor similar to the one below. I have a few that need these. Thanks

Well Done My Friend. Keep us updated and we sure want to see photos when they go in the ground.

They have to be ordered via the Veterans Affairs (VA).
There should be plenty of folks on CWT with experience who can furnish details.
You probably have to furnish proof of military service, the best proof being the Compiled Military Service Records from the National Archives.

I got into the Archives last night but it is a little confusing for first time users. Working on it though.
