Military honors
FYI for pipers that might find themselves in a similar situation...
Just piped a memorial service for a family that had a direct cremation; no funeral director; they planned the whole thing on their own. No one told them (until I did) that their Dad was entitled to a military honor guard, "Taps", and an American flag at no charge. I emailed them the Flag Request Form to take to their Post Office, and a Military Honors Request Form from the Florida National Guard. They were quite grateful for the tip, and their Dad got the respect he deserved.
