Kiosks at 66 national cemeteries crash on Memorial Day
May 26, 2009
(Springfield, Mo.) News-Leader: Sixty-six national cemeteries equipped with grave-locator kiosks were affected by a computer crash at the National Cemetery Administration in Quantico, Va., on Monday — Memorial Day — according to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
VA spokesperson Jo Schueda, contacted at the agency's headquarters in Washington, D.C., said the glitch affected access to the computerized cemetery records of six million veterans buried at national cemeteries. Schueda said the problem was due to a "fried" hard drive in Virginia that had yet to be repaired.
