Veterans Military Honors

Veteran Services

From the home's own description

“Davis Funeral Home provides comprehensive military funeral services, ensuring veterans receive the honors they deserve. They assist families in determining eligibility for military death benefits, which can include a gravesite at a VA National Cemetery or state veteran cemetery, a headstone, marker, or medallion, and a Presidential Memorial Certificate. The funeral home coordinates military funeral honors, which, at a minimum, include an honor guard detail, the folding and presentation of the American flag to the next of kin, and the playing of Taps. They also help families obtain the necessary DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty) and can facilitate additional honors such as horse-drawn limbers, aerial flyovers, and gun salutes based on the veteran's rank.”

How to request military funeral honors

By law (10 U.S.C. § 1491), an eligible veteran's funeral can include, on request, an honors detail of at least two service members who fold and present the U.S. flag to the family and play Taps. The funeral director usually makes the request and will need the veteran's DD214 or other discharge papers.

VA suggests asking at least 48 to 72 hours before the service. More on what honors include and how to request them.
