Our family gathered at the Gerald B. H. Solomon Saratoga National Cemetery on June 18 to honor the lives of my wife's parents at their committal service and internment. This was an amazingly peaceful and beautiful place; a wonderful place to reflect among all the others resting here.
My father-in-law was a veteran of the Army Air Corps during WWII. These honor guard members represented the Air Force on this day.
The Honor Guard rendered a 21 - gun salute.
Taps is chilling.
The flag ceremony was intense, as all eyes faced the detail.
These men did it right!
Presentation of the colors, in honor of Jack, to our family. Our son John received the flag to the words "On behalf of the President of the United States, the United States Air Force, and a grateful nation, thank you."
A final eulogy and friendly words from the pastor.
