Description
In 2022, the deaths of two horses revealed issues within the U.S. Army Caisson Detachment, which conducts full honor funerals at Arlington National Cemetery. This report presents findings on the causes of these issues--including resource limitations, contrasting missions for the soldiers, and insufficient equine expertise in the unit--and guidance for developing a horse-first approach that will make the Army's caisson operations more sustainable.
