Army urged to restore dignified burials for veterans
In a recent government meeting, a strong emphasis was placed on the need to prioritize military funerals for veterans, particularly in light of the upcoming Veterans Day. A committee member, who identified as a veteran and a horse rancher, highlighted the importance of ensuring that service members and veterans receive the dignified horse-drawn burials they have earned.

The speaker expressed concern over the Army's current practices, urging that it is \"past time\" for the military to recommit to these traditional burial services. They criticized the Army for what they described as a waste of taxpayer money and called for a resumption of sustainable caisson platoon operations, which are essential for providing proper military funerals.

The meeting also included plans to hear from Major General Trevor Breitenkamp regarding the Army's strategies to address these issues, as well as insights from Admiral Kreitz on the necessary steps to restore these vital operations. The discussions underscored a commitment to honoring the sacrifices of fallen service members and ensuring that their families receive the respect and recognition they deserve.
