This gate is dedicated to members of the Armed Forces of the United States who died while serving their country in war and in peace. It also honors Kermit Roosevelt, born 1859 and died 1943, who fought in the British and American armies during World Wars I and II. The national cemetery was made possible through the cooperation of Eklutna, Inc. in yielding its native claim and legal rights to the land, a gesture for which the Veterans Administration, along with Alaska’s veterans and their families, expressed deep gratitude on May 26, 1984.
