History
Montana State Veterans Cemetery was established in 1985 when the Montana State Legislature authorized the first state veterans cemetery to be located on Fort Harrison, near Helena. In 1986, the United States Congress authorized the transfer of 62.5 acres of Federal land to the State of Montana for this new cemetery. The first burial was a World War I veteran on September 8, 1987.”
