ABILENE, Texas— On Thursday, August 6th at 11:00 a.m., the Texas State Veterans Cemetery at Abilene will conduct an Unaccompanied Veteran Burial for U.S. Army Veteran Specialist (SPC) Steven Louis McCarley. Born on March 8, 1952, SPC McCarley served from July 1987 to July 1990. SPC McCarley received the Army Achievement Medal for his service to our nation.
SPC McCarley is not expected to have any next-of-kin attend his burial. Please help us spread the word and ensure that this U.S. Army Veteran is not buried alone. Members of the Abilene community are encouraged to attend.
SPC McCarley will receive military honors. If no next-of-kin is present at the burial, a Veterans Land Board Representative will accept the United States flag on his behalf.
