I flew down to San Diego this week to attend the military funeral for my Grandpa who passed away recently. My wife just recently lost her Grandpa (also military) and told me the service was not to be missed.
Despite the fog, the view from Ft. Rosecrans (San Diego) was gorgeous. The service was obviously small and included one soldier playing taps on a bugle, two soldiers unfolding then folding the flag, and finished by one of the soldiers presenting the flag to my Grandma.
It was quiet, intimate, and respectful — perfectly suited for my pops.
