What are Military Funeral Honors?
The elements of the funeral honors ceremony will include, the firing of three rifle volleys, and the folding and presentation of the American flag. A bugler will play taps.
The Honor Guard personnel are trained to ensure proper decorum, professional appearance and synchronization of movement during the dignified and respectful ceremony, The obvious appreciation on the face of the next of kin is our reward.
