Thanks tats, and everyone else for the support!
My sincerest condolences. Great video, btw; Your dad was one of the Tuskegee Airmen? Wow.
We did a unit on the Airmen in my African-American History class a few semesters ago. It was taught by a member of the First Air Cavalry. I'm glad they gave him full military honors.
No, he wasn't in the TA, but like your teacher, my dad was a First Cavalry man (yellow shield with the silhouette of a horse, is that right?)
Instead of wearing a shirt and tie to the funeral, I wore one of his First Cav polo shirts which I was wearing underneath that suede jacket I was wearing in the picture.
As far as the video I posted, it wasn't my dad's funeral, it was just to show an example of how a military funeral works.
