They did not allow no name to be buried at Arlington. Arlington is for heroes. He’s buried at Annapolis, I believe.

Interesting that GHWB did not have the riderless horse etc. and was not interred at Arlington.

Presidents are not usually interred at Arlington.

Recently, they are buried at their libraries.

GHWB was a Naval Aviator. They get a flyby

“...The missing man flyover – a high honor bestowed by the military – “is a symbolic final farewell to a great man who left a tremendous legacy of selfless service to his nation and his family,” he told WVEC-TV.

Aviators also performed a Missing Man Flyover at the funeral of Senator John McCain earlier this year.”

Reagan, Ford, Nixon, Bush 1...all buried at their presidential libraries. It's a thing...and it keeps out the riff-raff and guys who want to water their graves!

Interesting. I wonder how his actual funeral compared wth the arrangements he specified when he was President.
