The USA is an exceptional nation of valued warriors and peace makers. Your wonderful ceremony for this man was amazing. Your country pays it's respect in the most amazing way possible. RESPECT.

From this Navy veteran to you, my Armed Forces brother; God bless you, salute and thank you for your sacrifice. RIP 🇺🇸🇺🇸🫡❤️🫡🇺🇸🇺🇸

What a blessing to be able to witness this... a well lived life, a distinguished career and a great American.

My father, a Staff Sergeant in the U S Army, passed away in March. Putting to rest a person who has dedicated their life to the service of their nation and its people is a solemn act of respect and gratitude. My father was interred with my mother at a cemetery in Jonesboro Ga. My older sister deferred the flag and had it presented to me. May all those who serve be given the dignity of a respectful burial.

I have a challenge coin from him. He came to visit the soldiers at a training exercise at Grafenwoehr during gunnery training. He talked about the problems facing the soldiers. He said if we were ever in Washington DC and showed him the coin he would buy a beer.. Super intelligent, caring thoughtful officer.

May he rest in peace. We thank you for your service

I met him in 1994 at US Army Recruiting Command. Thank you for your service. RIP

One helluva Soldier. An honor to have served with you, sir. Rest in Peace, Brother.

I’ve done a couple of these while I was at Fort Lewis. I went to Oregon and California to do two military burials with full honors. One was a major and the other full bird colonel. None the less I cried at both because I believe every man and woman that wears the uniform honorably are American Hero’s. God bless this hero my condolences to the family. It’s truly an honor to be chosen to do something like this. We must as a country pay respects to the men and women who wear this uniform everyday and they answer every call to duty no matter what it is. This man changed many lives and he saved many lives. So we honor hero’s like this everyday no matter whether we serve actively or not. I thank the Army for turning me into the man I’ve always wanted to be. I still do some things in my life today that I did when I was on active or reserve status. These generals who move on from this earth changed many lives they came across.

I met him in 1993 when I was in Army stationed at Fort Stewart, Ga Thank you for your service and may you RIP 🇺🇲🫡

America honour their fallen veterans with so much respect the services are so moving . RIP Army Chief of Staff General Gordon Sullivan

God bless our veterans and all the men and women who served under our flag for our country🇺🇸🫡🇺🇸

My grandfather fought in Korea and worked with General Sullivan a few times for veteran memorials in Massachusetts a couple times, he told me he was "a great, stand up guy and helped get things moving when they didnt". May they rest in peace.

What a great leader; he cared for Soldiers; and he revolutionized the Armor Branch. I use to interact with him when he visited Ft Knox. God Bless Sir. Rest in Peace. You are an incredible Leader and Soldier.

The respect befitting this great General ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you Sir.

God Bless you Sir 🙏🙏🙏🙏 and Thankyou for our Freedom 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I am a fellow Norwich Alum to General Sullivan, class of 1979. Years later, I served in the USAF Reserve. One of the lasting memories from freshman year in the Fall of 1975 is his kindness to me. I was limping because my left leg is shorter than my right from a bout with polio as an infant. He was visiting campus that day and saw me limping. He came over and greeted me, asked how I was doing and if I was from Texas due to my rolling gait. When I told him why I walked like that, he expressed sympathy and patted me on the shoulder. He cared for the folks under his authority.

RIP. Thank you for your many years of service.

I am proud that my father and mother rest for eternity on these hallowed grounds, accompanied by so many others. Thank you for your service, Gen Sullivan. To the Arlington Ladies, your words of kindness and comfort are always appreciated.

Thank you for your many years of service to this country of ours. May you rest in peace. Beautiful Ceremony. Arlington National Cemetary is a class act and much respect to them for honoring our military heroes.

Another Soldier Crosses Over to Meet the Commander of Light. God Bless.

Duty, Honor, Country. What else better could any of us want to be remembered for?

Rest in Peace. You have served your country with honour pride and sacrifice. You have truly seen the end of war. Condolences to your family.

He was my Post Commander at Ft Benning in 1986!

Thank you for your service Sir and giving us the ability to have our freedom !!!! R.I.P. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thank you for your service to our wonderful nation Sir. To all our service men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice to give us our freedom RIP. god bless the USA🇺🇸. Proud to be an American.

From an old Marine GySgt, the Old Guard did a great job. General, thank you for your service. Fair Winds and Following Seas on the next journey. Semper Fi.

From Spain, from a veteran, all my respects. Rest in peace.

Thank you for your service.

One time while assigned to Ft. Riley, KS we were at Ft. Leavenworth, KS doing a ceremony. Afterward Gen. Sullivan came over to the band and gave each one of us his challenge coin. I still have it and treasure it greatly. It's one of my favorites out of all the ones I have.

Outstanding service for the CSA. My Okinawan wife and I were in Arlington 11 April in Section 60. We saw another Army and Air Force service such as this. Thank-you to all the service members. I was in the path of the Army service marching back to their transportation..and held a firm salute to all as they marched past me and wife. She too was moved. We were visiting my cousin in Section 60, LTJG Phil Buck, USS IOWA, BB61, 19 April, 1989. Semper Fidelis to all, USMC Retired. Vietnam Era.

Hell of a way to say goodbye.

Thank you for your service to world peace and thank you to all men and women who serve in all armed services in would keep us all safe R.I.P rest in peace sir from UK thank you

From a fellow Norwich Alum, thank you for your service.

Thank you for my freedom rip

Thank you for your service and now you're in the hands of a different commander and chief. He will assign you another duty to accomplish R.I.P. Sire. Prayers to his family. Blessings.

May god rest his soul and watch over his family in their time of need 🙏🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Had the opportunity to meet and hear Gen Sullivan speak at the Armor School several times. An Armor legend.

God Bless you Sir for your service to your country 🙏 from the fletcher family in the UK

God bless the General. May he rest in peace. Thank you General for your dedicated service. May God bless all those serving, and have served.

Thank you for your service and sacrifice and my you rest in peace my deepest condolences for family friends and colleagues 😢🇺🇸🙏😢

I visited there back in October 2023 what amazing place. God bless all who rest there. From the UK 🇬🇧

My first CSA. RIP Sir. I can only hope to serve as long as you did. Your are an inspiration to this day.

It was good to see that the Army brought out a horse again to honor the general.

All respects and solutes to Gen. Gordon Sullivan. He is one of those previous generations who sacrificed his time, life, and families to keep us the Americans safe in "our" generation. Thank you Sir. Rest in peace.

Thank you for your service I stand and salute you sir.

Now, that’s the way to honor our heroes. It makes me very proud. Thank you and all of your families for your service and sacrifice.

Thank You for your Service each and every member of U.S. Armed Forces.

My father-in-law passed in 2010. He was a marine and was a mechanic. He was buried in his uniform and accorded full military honors because he was one of the Choisin Few. My husband said that his father never spoke about his experience in war except to say that war is terrible. I looked up Choisin Few on the Marines' website. I wanted my grandsons to know a little about the great grandfather they will never meet. I thank all veterans for your invaluable service to this nation and the freedom purchased with blood and sacrifice.

Thank you for your service..and your family..God bless you! And all that served this fine nation...In God we trust.

My Condolences to the Family. May he rest in peace.

Salutes..Thank you sir..We'll see you at the rally point.

As Assistant Commandant of the Armor School, then-BG Sullivan officiated at my promotion to captain, on 1 March 1984.

May this hero rest in peace. What an honor to witness this.

Beautiful

Rest easy brave warrior, the General was my Brigade commander, 1rst Bde 3rd Armored Division. Additionally became ADC of 3rd Armd Division. Pinned my E7 stripes on me.

I met General Sullivan when I was stationed at Hohenfels Germany, we were doing civilians on the battlefield during the Serbian war ,training the units going there, I received a coin from him with his name and Army Chief Of Staff on it and still have it

Touching

Deepest condolences to the family.

*RESPECT!*

From Barbados. Rest in peace Sir. Didn't know you but you served and that's what matters.

Been to a funeral @ Arlington. Bless Them.

Rest in peace, General. From one of your former soldiers.

Rest in peace General. 🇺🇸

The land of heroes. 🫡

❤ ty

Rest in peace you will be walking in heaven the great lord is wait😮to welcome to eternity

General Sullivan was the Army Chief of Staff when I joined in 1989. He was the first impression of Top Brass that I was exposed to and I remember him for his warning to us about avoiding a "hollow Army"- reference the Korean Conflict. I think he saw the writing on the wall- and we trained and we trained again. Hello Desert Storm, Desert Shield, Just Cause, Enduring Freedom, Iraqi Freedom, - to name a few. He stewarded the Association of the United Sates Army (AUSA) of which I early on became a lifetime member. This huge tribute, bringing out all of the Guard, is fitting for a top man, the most senior Army General of his time, who dedicated his entire adult life in service to our nation. Rest in Peace Sir, Hooah!

Rest in Peace, Sir

4:53 "Jumping Jesus they are back!" IYKYK

Gen. +Sullivan, R.I.P.

Rest in peace sir. We have the watch. Till The Green

Gracias por su honorable servicio. Que el Señor lo reciba en su Gloria Bendiciones y Paz para su Familia.

From General Officer to Private a military funeral is a somber occasion. With deepest respect to the general and his family. Go in peace my brother in arms.

To a Warrior, America the Besutiful, 3rd Stanza: "Who, more than self, their COUNTRY loved." I salute you, sir! Hammer US Army CW4/SrAviator

He was a terrific leader to our nation, and a great ambassador to his alma mater. Norwich Forever!

Interesting, it seems like he was buried in an older part of the cemetery with all of the older style headstones.

give that horn player a raise!

Salute

o7 o7 o7 Thank You For Your Service

If I mentioned that I spent time watching this to my immediate family they would wonder why. I may have dodged all our country's conflicts but there is something about enlisting and serving in our Armed Forces. I only did one enlistment but one is different because of being one.

🇺🇸Tanker tough,sir.🇺🇸

NU forever sir

Today is the Memorial Game. I miss my grandfather who passed away and my father who is bedridden. Everyone lying there, rest in peace. My last day is with you all...

GEN Sullivan was my brigade commander in Europe. I had the opportunity to further interact with him when he was 3AD chief of staff and when he was CSA. He was one of the finest leaders I've ever known. Those who had the opportunity to hear him address soldiers at Ayers Kaserne will understand when I say "he was a Great American". Ready First, Sir! ... and rest easy.

Lest We Forget.

My step father served in the vietnam war. He was radioman under the camo nets communicating with artillery with coordinates on where which direction to send/fire artillery shells at enemy locations. He was with I believe the 82nd airborne or 101st screaming eagles. My step-father served and was discharged under honorable conditions. The military shiped him back home. On his DD214 he was awarded the DFC-Distinguished Flying Cross for his n heroic actions against the Viet Cong . He held a specialist rank in the army. My step-father choose to be creamated. I ask the va personnel why they did not give him a gun salute the va rep said that because he was not retired. I why the army did not medically retire out my step-father he got the short end of the stick. Meanwhile my 1st cousin was active as well and was received a war service related injury when he deployed to Afghanistan. The army medically retired my cousin. My step-father a combat veteran airborn rated honorably discharged received again a distinguished flying cross but was not medically retired out. As for my 1st cousin the army medically retired him out. My cousin said he did not receive a purple heart. He got injured from jumping off a armored personnel carrier and landed and injured his hip, leg, knees etc no medals for heroic action but he got the better end of the stick by being medically retired out.

Hubert Whitaker, my uncle, is laid to rest in Arlington. ❤️❤️

R.I.P., General Sullivan. Question: why so long from the time of Gordon Sullivan's passing to his interment at Arlington?

❤

🙏 R.I.P.

Rip.❤

❤😢😢😢

ALOHA & MAHALO~🙏

I get so emotional watching scenes like this knowing there are miscreants, communists, socialists and anarchies amongst us who would rather destroy the flag of this great nation than honor those that served to protect them, RIP

I'm surprised you didn't explain the horse, representing the last ride of the soldier, and the meaning of the rearward facing boots in the stirrups(in this case facing the rear to signify he died of natural causes, forward facing toes if the soldier died in combat(with their boots on))

Family ARMY 🫡🇺🇸

Lay easy sir, we'll take it from here. RIP

Howard Manoian (Airborne st. Mere Eglise) belongs at this place.
