A military funeral is definitely a sobering experience. I’ve been to too many, especially at Arlington.
we didn’t even know who the soldier was but it affected us
we were on a grayline tour bus and we visited the wwii memorial and there was a father and son with us the son told everyone on the bus that his father was in wwii and had to see the memorial before he died
everyone on the tour bus gave him a standing ovation
Thank you for being there ... I have four close relatives at Arlington.
