The motorcade carrying the casket of former President Jimmy Carter has arrived at the Navy Memorial in Washington, D.C. The solemn occasion marks the beginning of a ceremonial procession to honor the life and legacy of the 39th President of the United States.
During the ceremony at the Navy Memorial, Carter's body will be transferred to a horse-drawn caisson, a traditional military honor reserved for dignitaries and military personnel. The caisson will then lead a funeral procession down Pennsylvania and Constitution Avenues towards the US Capitol.
Members of Carter's family are expected to walk alongside the caisson as it makes its way to the Capitol, paying their respects and reflecting on the life of their loved one. The procession will be a poignant moment of remembrance and tribute to a man who dedicated his life to serving his country.
As the caisson moves through the streets of Washington, D.C., onlookers are expected to gather to pay their respects and honor the memory of President Carter. The funeral procession symbolizes a nation coming together to honor a leader who made significant contributions to the country during his time in office.
The ceremony and procession serve as a final farewell to Jimmy Carter, a statesman known for his dedication to peace, human rights, and public service. The event is a somber reminder of the impact that Carter had on the nation and the world, and a moment to reflect on his enduring legacy.
