Dallas Fort-Worth National Cemetery inters an average of 40 "unclaimed" veterans a year who were either homeless, lost contact with their family or died in a nursing home without next of kin. Unfortunately, that is not unusual around the country.
On Wednesday, the cemetery gave 20 veterans honorable burials, WFAA 8 ABC News reports. Unfortunately, 12 of those veterans did not have family present, remaining "unclaimed" — a sad, but common reality.
