There are all kinds of Flag Customs in the Army and some even require specific music, for example the Presentation of Colors= there was a specific bugle call that was sometimes transliterated- Oh the Concrete is hot and my feet hurt too much- this was slow and dignified- there was a flourish with the Trumpet as the flag neared the summit.( of the flagpole) On the other hand the Retreat Flag call was paradoxically more lively, and was repeated three times like some sort of distress signal- the latter call may have been the inspiration for ( Chitty Chitty Bang Bang) as this is quite lively. In reference to funerals- of course the Half mast procedure it used. I don"t know if there is a special song or bugle call for this one. the correct term is Half mast. (two-blocked) is commonly used but actually means the opposite- the flag is all the way up as the pulley blocks-and-tackles are touching. still two-blocked does make the press as a synonym for Half mast- maybe because one-half as a fraction is written one over two.

How do funeral directors keep the body cool at the funeral?

The body is kept cold in the morgue at the hospital or at the funeral home before the embalming because your body starts to deteriorate upon death and the cold retards that deterioration. Once the embalming takes place the body doesnt need to be kept as cold because the purpose for embalming is to slow that deterioration.


What is a funeral toll?

A funeral toll is also called a knell. A funeral toll is the slow ringing of the church bell using the hammer rope (as opposed to the pealing rope that actually swings the bell) as the deceased is carried out of the church. In many places, there is usually a series of quick rings to indicate the gender of the decedent (for example, three for a man, two for a woman), followed by a pause, then one ring for each year of the decedent's life, spaced approximately 10 seconds apart. Listening, one can tell a funeral toll by its slow "bong . . . bong," as opposed to the faster, more joyous "ding-dong" when the bell is pealed.


What accurately describes two types of diver down flags?

A diver down flag, or scuba flag, is a flag used on the water to indicate that there is a diver below. Two styles of flag are in use. Internationally, the code flag alfa/alpha, which is white and blue, is used to signal that the vessel has a diver down and other vessels should keep well clear at slow speed.
