Cmdr. Lewis served honorably in the Navy for more than 30 years. His decorations include Air Medal with 2 gold stars, Vietnam Service Medal with 3 gold stars, and Republic of Vietnam Campaign Medal with device. He is inurned in Columbarium Court 9.
This was the first funeral service since March 26 to include a caisson, a next step in Arlington National Cemetery’s phased plan to resume larger support to military funeral honors as COVID-19 cases within the National Capital Region are trending down.
