FUNERALS
The most cherished and honorable final resting place for our military and civilian heroes and their families is Arlington National Cemetery located in Arlington Virginia, just outside Washington D.C., adjacent to historic Joint Base Myer Henderson Hall.
Along with countless memorials, high ranking officials, sports legacies, and US presidents, to have your loved one buried in Arlington is an absolute true Honor. With the most impressive military support, to include the U.S. Army Caisson Platoon the last official mounted unit in the U.S. military, and members of the honor guard who can provide an escort, pallbearers, and 21 gun salute, added to the prestigious performances of the nation’s premier military bands who provide marches, hymns, and a bugler to sound Taps, the services in Arlington National Cemetery create one of the most impressive displays of military pageantry to bid final farewell and honor those who truly deserve such an honorable display.

*In Arlington cemetery there are many sources of audio interference which happen quite frequently. Mainly, because of the close proximity to Washington National Airport and the Pentagon, low flying aircraft are constantly flying over Arlington Cemetery interfering with clear audio recording. Other interferences include:
- Other burial services being conducted in close proximity
- Maintenance trucks, buses and construction equipment
- Traffic noise from nearby highways
