Is this acceptable use of a military graveyard?

I am not a fan of using any cemetery, military or not, as a scene for a film or tv. TV studios have more than enough funds to 'build' a set that resembles the exact cemetery they are looking to film while bringing attention to their cause.

SPC Jan Allbright, M.Sc., R.S.
Exactly so .. and they would probably sink more $$ into it than the gov spends in National Cemeteries.

I think it's sacred ground, SPC Jan Allbright, M.Sc., R.S., and turning it into a "circus atmosphere" is unsatisfactory and should be prohibited. Hollywood could "make" a military cemetery set (scene) to shoot this part of the movie. I think that would be a good compromise.

I agree CW5 (Join to see) --- in fact, my first thought on seeing SPC Jan Allbright, M.Sc., R.S.'s discussion was "is nothing sacred anymore?"

If the movie depicts respect for our veterans and fallen heroes, the crew maintains a respecful demeanor and keep the disruption minmal and tries to do as much off the grounds as possible and they leave the grounds better than when they started. Then ok. Could be positive publicity for veterans.
