HONOR GUARD

  • Military Funerals: The most common role is providing honors at the burials and services of fellow veterans.
  • TAPS: A bugler plays Taps, a solemn bugle call, to honor the deceased
  • Color Guard: They also carry the national colors (flags) in parades and at public events. 
 
How They Operate:
  • Volunteer-Based: Composed of dedicated veteran volunteers, often from different branches of service.
  • Donations Accepted: Services are free, but donations support uniforms, equipment, and upkeep.
