Well said Soddim, ACM or SAC we're all the same once we're in our boxes, although there may be a few more brass hats in evidence at the former's funeral.
Seriously, Bitmap, I'm pleased to hear your brother was sent off in a fitting manner, the last service funeral I attended was a local ATC officer who was killed in a motorbike accident - and he had the full treatment, even as a "part-time" officer.
On a lighter, and I hope not disrespectful note, I am always intrigued by the term "full military honours". Are there any other sort; partial military honours for example? Or just a few?
