Remembering...
The Riderless Horse: one of the oldest and most moving military traditions in a full honor funeral is the riderless, caparisoned horse. The horse is led behind the caisson wearing an empty saddle with the rider’s boots reversed in the stirrups, indicating the warrior will never ride again.
Join us this Memorial Day weekend to remember the heroes we have lost and the families they leave behind.

The Riderless Horse is one of the most moving ceremonies - had the privilege to witness it when we lived in VA. Our neighbor was buried at Arlington Cemetery - he had been a colonel in the army during WWII. I'll never forget it - sent chills up and down my spine, especially when seen with all the rows and rows of headstones in the background. W must never forget the sacrifice of our fallen heroes.
Here are my two for the Tree:
