Saw USSS in the background every step of the way. The military handles the upfront -- his detail will leave and hers will stay. I think I remember reading that his detail though was down to almost nothing. One of his former agents came back for this week to help Nancy.

I thought several of the people who came to the casket right before the military, were probably his Secret service detail. Saw big guys giving crisp salutes with looks of grief on their face.

I thought I saw them around also, but I wasn't sure.

Do you happen to know if there is some formal way to end their protection? There is so much pageantry in every thing else, so I was wondering if they have something like that when their assignment ends with death.

Did you happen to see the hearse being brought out of the gates at his home? The agents were walking with the hearse, one at each corner. When they came through the gate, the agents in the front, let go of the car at the same time and then turned toward the car, hands at their sides.

I know they got into a suburban and followed the hearse, but I didn't know anything after that.
