Togus National Cemetery (West)

The National Cemeteries in the U.S.A. are used for graves of war dead, graves of U.S. military personnel, veterans and their spouses but not exclusively so. There are also special state veteran cemeteries.

The East Cemetery was opened in 1936 to provide additional interment space. It was closed for interments in 1961. On Togus National Cemetery are more than 5000 graves.
