Eagle Point National Cemetery is located 14 miles northeast of Medford, Ore., in Jackson County. The cemetery opened in 1952 as an adjunct to the Veterans Administration Domiciliary (VA) at White City about four miles away. The VA operated the cemetery until 1973 when it was transferred to the new National Cemetery System and renamed White City National Cemetery. On March 19, 1985, the name was changed again to Eagle Point National Cemetery to convey a more accurate sense of its location.

Notable burials
Charlene Pryer was born in 1921 in California. She attended the University of California before joining the U.S. Marine Corps Women's Reserve in September 1943. Pryer sang with the Dick Jurgens Orchestra, entertaining the troops, and she continued to perform on the radio after the war. Her musical career is noteworthy but she excelled in the outfield. Her father, Maurice Pryer, played minor league baseball and taught her the game. Charlene played in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League (AAGPBL) from 1946 to 1952, with the Muskegon and Kalamazoo Lassies and South Bend Blue Sox. The AAGPBL was honored in Cooperstown in 1988. Pryer married Army Technician Stuart "Jack" Mayer in 1958 and they raised their family in Medford, OR, where a local baseball field is named for her. Pryer died June 3, 1999, and is buried in Eagle Point National Cemetery (Section A1, Site 28).

One notable burial at Eagle Point National Cemetery is Lieutenant George R. Tweed, U.S. Navy. Tweed was the sole survivor of a group captured by the Japanese after their occupation of Guam during World War II. Tweed hid on the island for more than two and one-half years evading capture and supplying valuable information to Allied forces. His ordeal inspired the book, Robinson Crusoe, USN and the movie No Man is An Island.
