I CANNOT think of anything more emotional than a military funeral.......
Any funeral is.....rough, but military is the roughest as far as I am concerned. Taps is the saddest thing I have ever heard.......21 gun salute.......flag draped coffin.....yow
Actually, the history of "Taps" is quite interesting. However, there is more than one account.
This one is my favorite
