US Military Service Medallions

It has become apparent that many graves of veterans do not have any indication of their military involvement. Mt. Bethel Cemetery has arrangements with a local foundry to produce bronze medallions that can be attached to monuments to indicate that branch of service of the deceased.

These medallions are in Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine and Coast Guard configurations and are 3 3/4 inches in diameter. They have stainless steel studs that are drilled into the monument and expoxyed in place to produce a permanent attachment.

There are two types: plain and a thicker one that can hold a flag. Prices are as follows:

$30: Plain

$75: With Flag Holder

$10: Installation at Mount Bethel only

Veterans

These medallions can be purchased without installation for persons having deceased veterans in other cemeteries.

Mt. Bethel Cemetery, which dates from the 1730’s, is the oldest burial ground in continual use in the Columbia area.

Mount Bethel Cemetery is an Equal Opportunity Provider.
