Cal. Mil. & Vet. Code § 951.5 — Burial of Veterans and Veterans’ Dependents is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
The public administrator of the county shall make every reasonable effort to determine if the unclaimed remains of a decedent referred to the public administrator belong to a veteran or the dependent of a veteran. If there is reason to believe that the remains belong to a veteran or the dependent of a veteran, the public administrator shall work with the county veteran service officer, a national veterans cemetery, the United States Social Security Administration, the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, or other applicable entity to determine if the remains belong to a veteran or the dependent of a veteran.
