When I visited Arlington in June, 2007, there were four burials taking place simultaneously

When I served with the USAF Honor Guard (1963-1967) We had 3 to 5 burials a day, 5 days a week in Arlington. That was just the USAF, the army, navy, marines and coast guard had their own. All of this before the V.N. war got really hot.

I mis spoke (it’s been a long time ago), the average was probably more like 1 -3 per day (USAF)
