My father was in paratrooper training jumping out of C-47's.
it was at the end of the war but he was in Occupied Japan.
He was in for two yr's but never saw combat.
I lost him few yr's ago, but Id like to have a correct service for him with just a couple of people I know
Id like to have a small military service for him to make it right. that he would deserve, and be prroud of.
Have a flag just for him im my Living room on the mantle.
SALUTE!!!!!.

@voldep45 and USA1848- in the video- they are shown live firing (with blanks) no clip at the barracks and with clip at Arlington. I am assuming you can load three rounds in an m-14 without the clip in and fire. Tomb of the Unknown Guards have no clip- just wondering.

@fredvondra They don't use the blank cartridges for practice all the time. Sometimes they do, but practice is mostly dry runs.

Just as fine as all the other warriors of our armed forces. God Bless America
My son is in the Old Guard and is a member of the firing party. I hope to be able to see him and his squad in action this summer.
