I added Section 1 of the Veterans Administration Plot to the image gallery.
This album contains (where available) an image of the soldiers' stone, the section/plot/row of the burial, the soldiers' name, death date and type of service.
Section 1: http://images.mountmoriahcemetery.org/main.php?g2_view=core.ShowItem&g2_itemId=1551

There are over 2,000 burials in this section. In general, the area is kept clean & tidy (it is maintained by Beverly National Cemetery of Beverly, New Jersey), but many of the stones have not been replaced in a very long time and in some cases are illegible.
I wonder, does the Federal government have an obligation to keep the stones in legible shape? If they do, is there any particular reason why this cemetery would not be maintained? Just thinking out loud.
I will continue working on the remaining sections and hope to have them posted as soon as possible.
