Central Texas cemetery invites public to veteran’s funeral--What happened--
Was there | 1/28/2019 | trumpisright

Just got home from the services for United States Air Force Veteran Joseph Walker. What a GREAT event it was. I think there were 350 people there. The Air Force was there in force (50), Navy, Marines, Coast Guard, Army (50). 21 gun salute. Took an hour to get out of the cemetery. What a great turnout. Worth the 2 1/2 trip each way!

I haven’t seen any video of the funeral so I doubt he received an official 21 gun salute

When the cemetery appealed to the public because they didn’t think he should be buried alone.

I figured shucks, Beto claims to be from Texas, put him in the hole with him so that guy doesn’t have to be buried alone.

I guess they didn’t like my idea?

Thank you for representing us Freepers who wished to attend but couldn’t.
