The Maryland Veterans Commission was au-
thorized by Chapter 504, Acts of 1973, to acquire
sites for the purpose of establishing cemeteries for
Maryland veterans honorably discharged from
the Armed Forces of the United States, and the
members of their immediate families. Funds ap-
propriated were authorized by Chapter 775, Acts
of 1974, to be used for the development of
veterans' cemeteries rather than the acquisition of
sites, since State land was to be used. The Com-
mission was directed to supervise, maintain, and
control such cemeteries established. The office of
Program Manager was created for the purpose of
supervising the development of the cemeteries and
the establishment of procedures for the adminis-
tration of the veterans' cemetery program. Mary-
land veterans' cemeteries are located as follows:
Eastern Shore — Dorchester County:
Route 331 East of Preston
Cheltenham — Prince George's County:
Route 301 Cheltenham
Rocky Gap — Allegany County:
Off Route 40 Adjoining Rocky Gap State Park
Crownsville — Anne Arundel County:
On Keidel Ferry Road in Whitney's Landing
area
Garrison Forest — Baltimore County:
Garrison Forest Road in Rosewood area
