*BEAM*

For those I haven't told yet, me grandpappy's ashes are going to be interred at Arlington National Cemetery. *BEAM*

anytime we'd be marching from chapel to columbarium, I would always get metallica's "sanitarium" in my head - "CooollumBARiUUUmm"

(was in the 3rd infantry and did sometimes 3 or 4 funerals a day in Arlington - that walk is a *loong* one, but it is a beautiful park. Your gramps will be in good company:)

I think Gen. R.E. Lee would approve. ( What most people don't realize is that Arlington Cemetery is what was at one time the front yard of the Lee family home.)

Great news! Sucks about the loss, but that's quite an honor.

May your grandpappy rest easy among his fellow comrades in arms.
