Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery

It is hard to imagine a more tranquil and beautiful cemetery in which to be buried than Fort Rosecrans. Perched on the Point Loma peninsula, it boasts stunning views. It is the last thing sailors see of the U.S. mainland when they sail out of San Diego Bay, which is why so many families of Navy veterans choose this as the final resting place for their loved ones. It became an Army post cemetery in the 1860s, but members of the military who died as far back as the battle of San Pasqual in 1846 are buried here. Veterans of World War I and all of the wars since lie in tidy rows marked by simple headstones at Fort Rosecrans, which was designated a California historical landmark in 1932. Among many other notables, Major Reuben H. Fleet, a World War I aviator, is interred here. The Reuben H. Fleet Space Theater and Science Center in San Diego's Balboa Park was named after Major Fleet. The cemetery has become such a popular resting place over the years that newly deceased veterans must have been cremated because of the lack of space.
