More detail
The Army Secretary would place a monument at Arlington National Cemetery or, if no appropriate spot is available, outside its entrance. It would honor Zeus 95 crew members killed in action on March 12, 2026, while supporting Operation Epic Fury. The monument must use a design approved by the Army and Air Force secretaries and sit on a plot not used for burials. The Army Secretary may act only after making an agreement that requires the Air Force Secretary to pay all site preparation, construction, installation, and maintenance costs, plus any other terms the Army Secretary requires.
