I found this on the www.rootsweb.com/~txcoryel/county.htm#lost.
It doesn't give very much information though.

CEMETERIES THAT ARE STILL INSIDE FORT HOOD


These cemeteries can only be visited once a year, on the Sunday before
Memorial Day, only then are family members permitted to clean the remaining
cemeteries, replace markers damaged by gunfire, decorate the gravesites,
meditate, visit with friends and relatives. It's a bitter sweet day.*


BETHEL, BROWN, BRUCE, UNNAMED CEMETERY (WITH 66 GRAVES), ELAM, FRIENDSHIP,
HALL, HENDERSON, HUBBARD, MAYBERRY, PLEASANT GROVE, POWELL, RUTH, SIBLEY,
SPRING HILL, WALKER, and WHITE.

These cemeteries contain over 849 graves, I do not have the number of graves
in 3 of these cemeteries.
