Eligibility
Regardless of rank or whether they died in combat, veterans from all military branches are eligible for a military funeral. Families of soldiers who die while on active duty may apply for a burial allowance to help with funeral expenses. Partial reimbursements may be available for soldiers who died in a non-service-related death.
Honors
At the very least, eligible veterans have the American flag folded and shown to their relatives, as well as the playing of Taps by a bugler. An honor guard detail made up of at least two members of the Armed Forces performs these duties.
Honors may include a three-volley rifle salute to reflect commitment, integrity, and the nation, the American flag draped over the casket, and a final salute at the gravesite.
It is not easy to plan a funeral for a loved one. By having a head start with our funeral home, you can alleviate some of the stress and hassles associated with the procedure. Get the peace of mind that everything will go exactly as planned if you trust Funeral Caring USA®.
