Plans for Anaheim Hills Veteran’s Cemetery Move Forward
IRVINE, Calif. The Orange County Board of Supervisors (BOS) on July 27 approved a $20 million spending plan for a veteran’s cemetery in Anaheim Hills.
The cemetery was initially planned to be based at a former Marine Corps. Air Station in Irvine, but when those plans fell through after years of political controversy, the site moved to Gypsum Canyon.
Veterans shared mixed feelings about the location during the BOS meeting, with some speaking in support of the move.
“It’s been a long time coming,” said Nick Berardino, president of the Veterans Alliance of Orange County.

The Department of Veterans Affairs announced Monday that it will require its health care professionals to be vaccinated within the next two months as coronavirus infections have more than doubled in the past month at its medical facilities.
VA data show roughly 300,000 employees – nearly 80% – have been vaccinated. But that includes staff not involved in patient care, and the percentage has varied widely by facility. Earlier this month, VA officials confirmed that 85% of staff at the facility in New Orleans had been inoculated, compared with 59% in St. Cloud, Minnesota.
VA Secretary Denis McDonough said in a statement Monday that mandating vaccines is “the best way to keep veterans safe, especially as the Delta variant spreads across the country.”
