Permanent grave rights for fallen Bundeswehr soldiers
The AfD wants graves of Bundeswehr soldiers who died during or as a result of a deployment abroad to be kept permanently, as is the case for those killed in the world wars. The public purse, not the cemetery operator, should bear the costs.
Some German soldiers die on missions abroad. The AfD wants their graves to stay forever. This is already the rule for soldiers from the world wars. The state should pay the costs.
Damaged soldiers' graves and memorials of honor should be restored quickly. The AfD rejects redesignating memorials of honor as cautionary memorials. At the same time, the party says it views many current foreign deployments critically.
