For purposes of providing burial benefits under subpart B of this part, the term "veteran" means the same as provided in 38 U.S.C. 101(2). A veteran must be deceased, and burial benefits for that veteran must be authorized by a specific provision of law. For purposes of the non-service-connected burial allowance under 38 U.S.C. 2303, the term "veteran" includes a person who died during a period deemed to be active military, naval, air, or space service under §§ 3.6(b)(7), 3.7(m) and 3.7(o). (Authority: 38 U.S.C. 101(2), 2303, 2307, 2308) \[79 FR 32658, June 6, 2014, as amended at 87 FR 26126, May 3, 2022; 89 FR 78253, Sept. 25, 2024\]
