Honoring Service, Preserving Legacy
At Texas Defense Force Security, our mission goes beyond protection—it is about remembrance, education, and national identity. We are a veteran-owned nonprofit dedicated to defending communities today while ensuring the sacrifices of yesterday are never forgotten.
A Legacy Written in Stone
Every national cemetery evokes awe through its sheer scope, yet too often, a name on a gravestone becomes a silent mystery to future generations. Our engraved QR code program, developed in partnership with the Department of Veterans Affairs, bridges that gap. Each deeply-etched aluminum code, built to last for centuries, links directly to the Veterans Legacy Memorial, allowing families, students, and visitors to access the life stories, service records, and contributions of our nation’s heroes.
Imagine standing before a gravestone, scanning a code, and instantly learning the history of the soldier laid to rest—their service, their sacrifice, and their impact. What was once a name becomes a story, and what was once silence becomes a source of education and remembrance.
Teaching the Next Generation
We believe that a nation that forgets its defenders loses its identity. That’s why our program is designed not only for memorialization, but also for youth education. Through QR-linked stories, living history lessons, and memorial installations, young Americans gain a direct connection to the past. Veterans’ lives and sacrifices become accessible, personal, and unforgettable.
Innovation in Memorial Design
In addition to QR codes, we are pioneering the use of photoengraved concrete and outdoor memorial plaques. These permanent installations allow entire stories, unit photographs, and battle images—such as those from the Vietnam War—to be preserved in public spaces. Memorial walls, walkways, and museum-style outdoor displays provide an environment where history lives on through both words and images.
This fusion of modern technology and timeless materials creates a living archive: a place where families can grieve, communities can honor, and students can learn.
The Significance of Our Work
America’s story is written in the blood and sacrifice of those who served. Our work ensures that those sacrifices are never reduced to a fading memory. By uniting cutting-edge engraving technology, veteran-driven service, and educational outreach, Texas Defense Force Security is helping America reclaim its identity, one legacy at a time.
We invite you to stand with us in this effort—because when we honor the past, we strengthen the future.

QrCodes for our Military Cemeteries
After more than a decade of persistence, the VA has finally introduced a monumental step forward — an online memorial portal that honors the lives and service of our nation’s veterans. This platform allows families and loved ones to preserve stories not only of those laid to rest, but also of living veterans who deserve to be recognized and remembered for generations to come.
As a veteran, visiting the National Mall and seeing only a name — without a story, without a connection — has always been heartbreaking. Changing that has been our founder’s lifelong mission, and now, with your help, we can make it a reality.
The creation of the online portal was the most costly and challenging piece of this vision. Now that it exists, the next step is bringing this digital legacy directly to the headstones — ensuring every veteran’s story can be accessed where their memory rests.
We invite you to join us in completing this effort. In the meantime, families can already begin adding tributes online — sharing the history, courage, and sacrifice of the warriors who fought for our freedoms, so that no one ever walks past a veteran’s name without knowing the hero behind it. The enclosed flier is the official flier authored by the VA.
Our mission is to have qrcodes on every military gravestone in the world. Robert Beverly, Commander of the Texas Defense Force, official corporate sponsor of this project, has invented a process to engrave aluminum qrcodes (as shown in the product photos) deeply so that these plates will last for a very long time. As a professional in the field of architectural art and a proud veteran, he has studied the potential and practicality of this enhancement and finds the absolute best placement of the plate can best serve as its intended purpose of providing an endearing connection to those valiant soldiers who lay to rest. That location is 2” below the cemetery section/grave number located on the back of the stone. This gives a person the ability to connect, understand and appreciate those who have valiantly fought for our country. Now combined with the new online portal, the Veterans Legacy Memorial site, we can accomplish this task…BUT WE NEED YOUR HELP! Please read about our efforts to secure approval for this program.
We have created a form letter included below that you can send or modify to send to ANYONE WHO MIGHT LISTEN! to use as an example of what you might say to your representative at the VA or a Congressional representative. We have also created a list of those in the VA administration and ask that you send them all a letter requesting that they implement this process. What a difference it could make in the lives we wish honor had one of these codes embedded on the back of the stone below the designation number.
