Veterans: Military Funeral Honors

Military Funeral Honors

Whenever a Veteran is eligible, and the burial is local, we request Military Honors be provided by the "Joint Service Honors Command". They provide at the families request:

Taps.
21-Gun Salute.
Folding and presentation of the flag.
Chaplain.
Pall Bearers.

Determining Eligibility Of A Veteran

The preferred method to determine eligibility is the DD-214 (Honorable Discharge).

If you do not have a DD-214, a copy may be obtained by filling out a Standard Form 180 and sending it to:

National Personnel Records Center
9700 Page Blvd.
St. Louis, MO 63132

The Standard Form 180 may be obtained from the National Records Center by clicking on the below website:
