Alaska has more veterans as a percentage of its population than any other state but has yet to land the funding it has been requesting to build its first veterans cemetery -- much to the frustration of some residents and Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan.
Sullivan vented over the Department of Veterans Affairs' repeated failure to grant the state's request for funding for its first-ever state-run veterans' cemetery during a Senate Veterans Affairs Committee hearing Feb. 28.

As a percentage of the population they rank Number one but overall its still a small number.
This in no way should impact the fact that they do not have a dedicated Veteran's Cemetery, every state should have at least one, and should have some priority to be addressed.
