One day, a veteran’s funeral could be missing something most Americans assume will always be there.

No rifle salute.
No sounding of Taps.
No folded flag presented by someone who understands the weight of that moment.

Not because people stopped caring.

Because in many communities, the volunteer honor guards who provide these final military rites are aging, shrinking, and struggling to find new members.

These men and women show up in the heat, cold, rain, and snow to make sure a veteran’s final goodbye is carried out with dignity. Many pay for their own uniforms, gear, and travel because they believe no veteran should be laid to rest without honor.

But they cannot carry this mission alone forever.

At Operation Honor Guard, we are working to support honor guards, raise awareness, recruit new members, and help ensure every eligible veteran receives the final military honors they earned.

Please share this post so more people understand what is at stake.

Because the sound of Taps should never disappear from a veteran’s funeral.
