  The GOH at the crematorium were MPs?

  I am just surprised that the Band did not about turn to face the casket when it was loaded unto the gun carriage. And the command was for the band to slow march, not the entire procession. Quite different compared to the British.

  Those at the entrance of Mandai crematorium were servicemen from the four services.. army, navy, airforce and police. The ones up on the driveway outside the service hall were from the Provost unit.

  This OPS goes by a number of different names, all of which happen to be classified. So just be careful what you reveal in this public forum. But the next time you see or hear of any rehearsals or activities of such nature going on in the army camps, you can be sure it's gonna be a massive state funeral, if you get my drift...

  I watched it online, so the resolution wasn't very clear.. I was looking out for this guy on tv cause my friend told me that he saw one of them had like the US special forces tab, SEAL trident, diver's badge, expert marksman and funny (or maybe not) thing is that he's a guardsman.. Can anyone verify this claim?

  Nothing wrong with that..I've seen WOs with Guards, US Ranger and Air Assault..just depends on which course he takes in the senior years of his career.
