F.E. WARREN AIR FORCE BASE, Wyo. -- The base honor guard welcomed 22 new recruits during a graduation ceremony held at the cemetery here, Sept. 9. Each graduate received a certificate presented by Col. Stephen Kravitsky, 90th Missile Wing commander, and Chief Master Sgt. Jeffery Steagall, 90th MW command chief.
The Airmen spent two weeks learning the proper movements and actions that every honor guard member performs when supporting military funerals, marching in parades and posting or retreating of colors for retirements or a change of command. At the ceremony, graduates performed a mock funeral to showcase the skills they learned.
The Warren Honor Guard only holds two graduations per year, the next will be in March.
