The Ames American Legion Post 37 Honor Guard is a
group of legion members that perform burial ceremonies for the families
of veterans. The ceremony consists of American and Legion flags, color
guards, firing squad, and bugler. The firing squad will fire three
volleys of seven members. After the last volley the bugler will play taps.
Two legion members will then take the American Flag from the casket,
properly fold it, and present it to the appropriate person. The
Honor Guard performs in all weather conditions.
If you would like
the Honor Guard to perform at a funeral please call the post.
