The cemetery's initial development phase encompasses approximately 2.42 acres with infrastructure designed for dignified military honors and family gatherings. A committal shelter provides covered space for burial services regardless of weather conditions. The flagpole assembly area accommodates formal ceremonies, while a gravesite locator kiosk helps visitors navigate the grounds. Roadways, landscaping, and irrigation systems support maintenance of the sacred grounds. Front entrance access is provided directly from Hildreth Road on USDA property.
Burial in VA national cemeteries is available to all armed forces members meeting minimum active duty service requirements with discharge under conditions other than dishonorable. Eligible spouses, widows, widowers, minor dependent children, and certain unmarried adult children with disabilities may also be buried, including if they predecease the Veteran. Reserve component members who die on active duty, training duty, or were eligible for retired pay may qualify.
Cheyenne National Cemetery represents a significant expansion of federal burial benefits for Wyoming's Veteran community. Located on Hildreth Road in the southeast portion of the state, this 5-acre Department of Veterans Affairs facility was officially dedicated on October 8, 2020, with first burials commencing in early November 2020. The cemetery addresses a critical need: providing dignified, no-cost burial options for more than 22,000 Veterans, their spouses, and eligible family members over the next 40+ years.
The property sits on land purchased by VA in January 2017 for $64,099, positioned adjacent to the USDA Research Center in Laramie County. Its development reflects a deliberate federal investment in serving Wyoming's military population, with infrastructure designed to accommodate both traditional preferences and modern memorialization needs. The facility operates under standard VA national cemetery protocols, with visitation open daily from sunrise to sunset and administrative offices staffed Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
