A soldier is truly selfless in this sense; they are willing to sacrifice themselves so that millions of free, innocent people will never have to, so that they may enjoy the freedom that billions have died to protect. You are a hero, a patriot, and an eternal sacrifice for not just America, not just the oppressed, but to the whole world. I honor you, and I love you my American brother, may you rest in eternal peace!
@brokeskater.... how about you go punch yourself in the face. No matter who is doing the service the man deserves the respect. Shut your face and stop posting stupid shit.
I fear this was not an actual trumpet/bugler playing taps. US Military has chosen to using a artificial electronic bugle. Only an actual playing of taps should be acceptable. If a military band person is not available, then a student in a public school band should be enlisted to play taps. Lets preserve honor & tradition and ban these fraudulent electronic posers! Our fallen brothers and sisters deserve an honest playing of Taps which shows a true respect to the families and loved ones. .
I'm very sorry for your loss, I just want to say that regarding this video I was disapointed by the commanding soldier because he sounded weak on barking orders..normally the yell loud,,,which is the way it should be done..or maybe the video didn't record his commands properly. God bless you and your family. I too am a serving Soldier
Its my papas funeral all over again. they did this at his Funeral. i tried so hard not to cry. but it was to hard too take. SALUTE THOSE WHO DIED FOR OUR COUNTRY!!!!
All u idiots need to show respect you fuckin losers. His funeral was all out. Quit hatin on a true heroes funeral.Rest in peace, we miss you bro. We will never forget. Franko
First off I just want to say Thank You for your service.
I understand where you are coming from. I just think that they if they cannot find a bugler in the military good enough to play, I think they should ask local music shops to find volunteers or bands to play. It is the least a civilian can do in return for a man or woman's service.
I attended my brothers coaches funeral last year and they brought a bugle to the funeral, but he didn't play it. He just put it up to his mouth and let the CD take over. I am 16 years old and was about to go rip a 20 some year old Navy man a new asshole for not actually playing it. When it comes to Military funerals I believe you must give 110% because that man or woman being buried is considered family, not just another person.
that firing party wasnt excellen it was ok and that fake bugle does suck thats why my ARNG HONOR GUARD uses the real one. ive done 12 funerals in the past 10 days.
21 Gun salute is the highest honor you can get and only a few can get that like for example the President of the United States and Medal of Honor recipients... etc. That is just a 3 Volley Salute like the video says. Plus US Army Honor Guard wears Ceremonial Dress Blues and uses M14's with 7.62 blanks. By the way I am on the Honor Guard and we are a lot sharper then that, I salute all service members.
Not all army wears Dress blues yet..Not everyone has them so some are still doing them in Greens, some of us still use the M1 for the salute also. Not sure when the deadline for the Dress blue is.
your prob not even in the marines you fucking faggot. look at your name. your probably the typical 13 year old. You probably saw the marine with jon cena and thought the marines were badass. First off go see a good a movie like full metal jacket or tiger land. And before your go talking shit about a video of a soldiers funeral.... join a fucking branch. i fucking hate dick heads like you who act badass about the marines and arnt even in the military
You are extremely disrepectful. How dare you say a thing like that. Before you shoot your mouth off, why don't you go see what it is like when someone you know dies right next to you. FYI the firing party is shooting blank cartridges so one is harmed.
Ok now listen bud, I dont give a damn if its Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marines doing the honor guard. The purpose is to honor those who have given their lives for their country and those in it(a.k.a. YOU). So show some god damn respect and honor those who took the bullet for you, so that you could live.
Not to seem picky here, but that was a 3 volley salute...."guns" are artillery pieces, these are rifles. A 21 gun salute is with cannons fired one at a time and not in unison...it is reserved for heads of state.
This is the way it is supposed to be dont, better than most of the videos here on youtube. It doesn't sound like popcorn, good job for the detail. I've been a part of quite a few.
i find this to be truly enlightining i have just joined the army and i am in my ait phase now and i have the privlage to preform this cerimony this monday for a fallen soldier who served in world war two may god rest his soal i sencerly humble my self to this soldier who served us so valiently i take prid in my service to him
I'm in the army honor guard at Arlington National Cemetery. I just wanted to say those guys did one hell of a job with the 3 volleys a lot of people don't realize how difficult it is to get 7 people to fire at precisely the same time. Even being a split second off is noticeable.
I am not in Arlington National Cemetery team but wtf did he forget 3-5 sec to readjust... and if you are in ANC then you know that it is not that hard those guys are new at MFH.
I was in an ambush in Afgh. june of 07 losing my teamleader. I'm out because of the serious wounds. I hate death. I hate it. But seeing people torn up from losing a loved one just makes me want to go back, possibly be able to allow just one more man to come home. RIP fallen Warriors. "For he who gives his life shall always be my brother"
I am an Air Force maintainer on our Base Honor Guard. I just wanted to say that I respect what you have done for our country and the sacrifices you have gone through. You will always have my respect sir.
Good luck in your future endeavours on the Civillian side.
God Bless and God Speed Specialist Gudino. You nor our brothers and sisters will ever be forgotton. Thank you for the ultimate sacrifice. I will forever be in your debt brother.
21's are for presidents and heads of state. and the gun salutes should probably be done with m14's. but a good thing to say about this is that they were pretty sinchronized for using the m16.
