Every soldier who dies in mission receives a full government funeral. A government funeral is with all the honours, with the music and everything needed to honour this person and whatever he has done. The coffin is covered with a flag, and the guards stand by shooting and giving the salute. This is also organized by the military, by the responsible military homeland defence commander in that area. He has to organize this. If they don't want to have this funeral—and this has happened—then the costs are covered up to €3,000.
