Staff Sgt. Carlton R Hill II, a Soldier assigned to the Sustainment Troops Battalion, 3rd Division Sustainment Brigade, 3rd Infantry Division, receives the Army Achievement Medal for memorial service and flag detail support during an awards ceremony on Fort Stewart, Georgia, Nov. 23, 2022. Effective Jan. 1, 2000, the National Defense Act of 2000 (Public Law 106-65) authorizes Military Funeral Honors to Active Duty Soldiers, Retirees and Veterans. Under the law, at a family's request, every eligible veteran will receive military funeral honors, to include the presence of a military funeral honors detail, which will oversee folding and presenting the U.S. flag and playing "Taps," either by a high-quality recording or by a bugler. The law defines a military funeral honors detail as consisting of two or more uniformed military persons, with at least one being a member of the veteran's branch of military service.
