I had read somewhere (but can't find the reference)in the many Scott Crossfield articles about his death that he was going to be buried on August 15th at Arlington National Cemetery. Is this true? Any other information on it?

This is directly from the Arlington Cemetary website:

"Scott Crossfield's funeral will be held on 1300, 15 August 2006. Attendees should gather at the Administration Building, Arlington Cemetery about one hour prior. Proceed to an assigned reception room to greet the family. At 1300, everyone shall get into their cars and follow the car bearing the urn to a transfer point. The urn will be placed upon a horse pulled caisson. From there the Chaplain will lead the Honor Guard and the caisson to the Columbarium where the urn will be placed. This shall be a full honors ceremony. It is anticipated that there shall be a fly-over also."
