The PGR Honor Guard of flags on the way to the memorial site.
The Military Honor Guard bringing the flag and Brian's cremains to the site.
The PGR and Pipey.
The three riflemen and behind, in the shade, the bugler.

Looking at these photos makes me tear up!
Thank the Lord for our FReedom and for men like Tonk!
He was a jewel!
He was very loved by many! God bless his family!
He is missed.
Thank you Kathy.
Great pics Kathy.
Brian is missed.
Kathy, thank you for sharing your pictures of Tonk’s celebration.
It seems like only yesterday...
Great pictures. You are such a gem.
They unfolded the flag...
Snapped it smartly open...
Refolded it very precisely.....
Presented it to the SGT...
The presentation to Matt...they also presented him with 3 shell casings.

The gentleman to the left was from the Portland Coast Guard Staton. He said, "I'm in charge of these guys. Brian got trained, and trained the others. His contribution will not be forgotten."
Saying goodbye to the PGR.
The last look at the site of Brian's Memorial service.
