Honor detail

The honor detail is treated as non-negotiable. Funerals do not wait for a convenient Thursday. The comrades keep a rotation so a family is not left without a flag detail because the regular meeting fell on a different night — Reno, NV.

They practice the folds and the timing in the hall, then they go out in whatever the weather is doing. Afterward they come back, write the date in the book, and set the flag stand by the door for the next call.
