U.S. Marines with Marine Forces Reserve perform the three volleys at the funeral of Capt. Edgar Chase III at St. Louis Cemetery No. 3 in New Orleans, Feb. 29, 2024. The firing of three volleys over the grave of a fallen warrior has its origin in the old custom of halting the fighting to remove the fallen from the battlefield.
