As a former service member among many family members who served, this service was deeply touching. As a Christian and believer, the Chaplain's prayer touched my soul and was considerably encouraging. May God continue to bless that family.
As a former old guard soldier, performing over 1000 of these ceremonies, this still hit hard. The greatest job I ever had was showing final honors and respect to fallen heroes. Thank you for your service CPT Dancer and thank you to the family for allowing this to be uploaded.
Thank you so much for sharing this intimate moment. I am sorry for your loss. As a veteran, I must say this beautiful footage has allowed me (and I'm sure countless others) to appreciate and honor your loved one as well as all those who served our nation but weren't able to come home. God bless you and your family. And God bless you, John. The nation is eternally grateful.
You are the instrument of peace through force of arms, you volunteered to serve this nation we will forever be grateful for your service, in times of peace and war you stood in harms way as necessary and guide this nation in it's quest for peace amongst all nations on earth, for your ultimate sacrifice this nations gives you a place of honor for all to see, may your soul rest in peace-forever. A small prayer by me.

I think every American should visit this peaceful resting place for our brave hero's that gave their all to keep our Country the Greatest place in the world to live. The changing of the guards is something that words can't describe. Their uniforms are indescribably and perfectly creased their every move is above perfect all of this while being completely aware of their surroundings and prepared to protect the sacred area. Not to get rude but anyone that disrespects our gorgeous American Flag should be made to spend several months learning about what the true definition of freedom is and who and how it's maintained.
This brings back memories. I was on the base burial team for Maxwell Air Force Base, Montgomery Alabama, from April 1959 to July 1960. We buried several veterans as well as active military persons during that period of time. We did not have the horse drawn caissson but we did have the pallbearers, flag bearers, the rifle volley team with the 21 guns salute and the bugler playing TAPS. We also did the folding and presentation of the flag to the prooper survivor.
I am so sorry for your loss and I pray that your husband will RIP. My husband and son are in the Navy and my heart goes out to you. Please know that this military wife knows the family aswell sacr
My Dad had one of these funerals at Arlington Cemetery , Marine Aviator. , I think much larger with over 300 Naval Aviators there even an austonut and three Marine Medao of Honors. The VMFA-121 did the missing man fly over. The Commandant gave the folded up flag to my Mom. I was already in PTSD. My Dad had all the companies of Marines from Marine barricks and Marine headquarters marching there.
I assume this service is for your father. Please accept my sincerest condolences. A funeral of such dignity befitting the years of service given to his country. May he rest in peace
No matter for what service the funeral is conducted when the flag is passed on to member of the family before handing Old Glory over it is said " On behalf of a grateful nation."
Not only is it direspectful to him but also all the other military families that have lost someone they love. Like My family who lost their cousin and son in Afghanistan and brother
I’m a self proclaimed “funeral nerd”, so I’m used to watching videos like this. What is being shown is called a “rental casket”. It’s a casket that holds cremated remains and can be reused. The design also shown is a casket, not a coffin. Coffins are seen in the UK and are shaped like a person, and caskets are used in North America and have a rectangular appearance. The reason the flag is wrapped on the casket is to protect it from rain or snow. I have also visited Arlington when I was in DC. Great place, I love it to my core. My respect goes to every single soldier who went and risked their life for their country, and I hope I can be one of them too. Fly high brother! Edit: I was wrong (sort of) a rental casket is used for holding the cardboard containers for someone waiting to be cremated.
One Black Serviceman's family never saw this honor, his Name was Doris Miller and lies in eternal rest along with shipmates on the USS Liscome Bay. As he went down with the carrier.
People like you brining race into it for what reason? My grandfather was KIA on a B-29 halfway between Tinian and Tokyo and did not get this individual honor, but exactly like Doris Miller is honored in "Courts of the Missing" in Honolulu. Black service men who died in wwii were honored exactly like white ones
From the revolution onward a gun crew consisted of six men that operated a single gun they rode with their gun, now only three men are needed to control each team in a six horse hitch.
As he was not a colonel, he was not accompanied by a caparisoned horse. This honor is reserved for officers of colonel, general, and government officials with a strong military affiliation.
It is properly known as "three volleys" and signals the end of a truce between warring sides. A 21-gun salute is done with a battery of field howitzers and is reserved for the president.
Rank matters, and also if KIA or not. Lots of peopel buried at Arlington are soldiers who fought, survived a given war, and were buried there when they died. Also there are military honors even if you are buried in your home civilian cemetary
it bothers me, in the fact that all who served on the field of battle cant receive full military honors. but then again all who volunteered for the military. even they ,if called to combat would be willing to give their all. as a combat service man who served in Vietnam thank you to all that serve. weather you realize it or not you are a man or woman of distinction today ,given the state of thangs in America today. God bless you all.
If A veteran or someone who is not an veteran but did serve in the Military and that person is A Roman Catholic they will without exceptions must have there funeral service inside of A Roman Catholic Church then the Committal Service at Arlington If you where to ask why the Roman Catholic Church can't move the Holy Tabernacle outside of the Catholic Church which must be present at all funeral services and they cover the person who passed away with A white Cloth not A United States Flag unless the family request it and the Large Candle at the baptismal fount must be lit during the funeral service and the Holy Incense must be used and the Holy Water and the Roman Catholic Priest will wear white during the funeral service and then when the person is laid to rest the priest will bless the grave or the niche all of these are not negotiable during the Holy Roman Catholic Funeral Service and they will NEVER ALLOW SCATTERING ASHES
ONE DAY GOD WAS WALKING IN HIS GARDEN AND NOTICED AN EMPTY SPOT THAT NEEDED TO BE FILLED SO HE LOOKED DOWN HERE ON EARTH AND SAW WHAT HE WAS LOOKING FOR AND GENTLY PICKED HIM UP AND SAID PEACE BE THINE ANS CLOSED HIS WEARY EYES AND COMFORTED THE GRIEVING FAMILY. NOW THE CASE OF THE DISAPPEARING HEAT PACK HAS BEEN SOLVED IT WAS PLACE IN THE TRAP DOOR IN THE BACK OF THE CASKET

RIP CAPTAIN.THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE

At 4:20, are they putting the flag into the coffin? I did not quite catch that .

I can understand the one riderless horse, but what do 3 stand for?
From the revolution onward a gun crew consisted of six men that operated a single gun they rode with their gun, now only three men are needed to control each team in a six horse hitch.
As he was not a colonel, he was not accompanied by a caparisoned horse. This honor is reserved for officers of colonel, general, and government officials with a strong military affiliation.
What does the 21 gun salute signify?
highest honors and rank i believe...
The 21 gun salute is reserved for the president. What they do at military funerals, is known as 21 gulley salute.
It is properly known as "three volleys" and signals the end of a truce between warring sides. A 21-gun salute is done with a battery of field howitzers and is reserved for the president.
It is called the three rifle volleys
brave man and godbless you all fom theuk.xx

Enternal place of
rest those who serve.
And for those of whom
that sacrificed all.😐
I will do it all over again.
