Military funeral honors are a free tribute to veterans and active-duty members of the armed forces that can be requested by their families or funeral homes.


The U.S. Department of Defense's (DoD) Military Funeral Honors Program establishes policies and procedures for requesting and rendering these honors


Honors typically consist of two or more uniformed service members folding and presenting a U.S. burial flag to the family, and playing of Taps.


A gun salute by a rifle squad is reserved for veterans who retired from military service, service members killed on active duty, and Medal of Honor recipients.
