Honor Guard
Honor Guard is a ceremonial guard, is a usually military in
nature, appointed to receive or guard a head of state or other
dignitaries, the fallen in war, or to attend at state ceremonials,
especially funerals. In principle any military unit could act as a
guard of honor.
Our organization supports and works with our local “Honor
Guard.” We honor and remember our veterans in life and as
they pass from this life. Our Honor Guard can provide Military
Honors at a funeral occurring within Northwest Arkansas. A
veteran’s send-off is demonstrating a nation’s gratitude for
the veteran’s valor and service.
You may contact your local funeral home director to initiate a
request for Military Funeral Honors for a deceased Veteran.
You will need to provide proof of military service in the form
of a DD-214 or Statement of Service.
We invite you to be a part of our organization. Members help honor veterans, participate in events
and grow our network. Click here to learn more.
