U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. Jeff Wheeler receives an American flag from a Navy honor guard detail during a scattering of ashes ceremony honoring his grandfather and Pearl Harbor survivor, Major Wheeler. Wheeler was a U.S. Navy chief petty officer assigned to the minesweeper USS Widgeon during the attack on Pearl Harbor. The ceremony included a religious ceremony, a three-volley rifle salute and a bugler sounding Taps. Also in attendance was Wheeler's local church choir who sang the Navy hymn.
