A funeral where a bunch of CAP members show up in uniform? Or maybe with a CAP honor guard rendering military honors. There is no such thing as a CAP funeral.

I've been to a CAP Funeral. In it the pallbearers were all CAP senior members, the service was performed by a CAP Chaplain, and a Cadet Honor Guard performed. Taps was played by a cadet from a high school band. While there is no such thing as an "official" CAP Funeral. Squadrons can perform what would be the equivlant of a military funeral with the relatives approval or request on a voluntary basis. No CAP regulation authorizes a CAP funeral or prohibits it.
