Funeral of Retired Lt. Gen. Richard E. Carey

U.S. Marines with Marine Aircraft Group-41 prepare to perform the three volleys at the funeral of retired Lt. Gen. Richard E. Carey at Dallas-Fort Worth National Cemetery in Dallas, Texas, May 5, 2025. Carey served 38 years in the Marine Corps, serving in both the Korean and Vietnam War. Near the end of his service, Carey led the efforts of Operation Frequent Wind, the final phase in evacuation of American Forces from Saigon City, Vietnam, marking the end of U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War. After his service, Carey continued to help serve his community in different ways, such as participating in the creation of a national monument honoring those who served in the Battle of the Chosin Reservoir and assisting in the construction of the Dallas-Fort Worth National Cemetery.
