	The grave locations of more than three million veterans and dependents buried in national cemeteries can be found more easily now because the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has added maps of burial sections online that can be printed from home computers and at national cemetery kiosks. The gravesite locator http://gravelocator.cem.va.gov , online since April 2004, helps veterans' families, former comrades-in-arms and others find the cemeteries where veterans are buried. With the new online feature, people enter a veteran's name to search, click on the "Buried At" (burial location) link and a map of the national cemetery is displayed, showing the section where the grave is located.


	Returning Troops to get Additional Health Screening Soldiers returning from deployment will now participate in a new health-screening program three to six months after arriving home. The time just after the soldiers return home is full of activity and it may not be until after they settle into their life and work, that they notice things are not quite right. And at that point, most do not know the best place to find out what is wrong or what to do about it. Every service member who returns from a deployment will still go immediately go through an INITIAL Post Deployment Health Assessment, which includes an educational program for soldiers called a medical threat debriefing, a completion of a series of questions about their health experiences during deployment, and a visit with a healthcare professional.
