The Bargain Element Of Consideration. All contracts require something to be given in return for something else. This is called âconsideration. It is the bargaining element of the contract, where something is gained on each side. A classic definition of consideration, in terms of benefit and detriment, was given by Lush J in CURRIE v MISA (1875)
A military funeral may feature guards of honor, the firing of volley shots as a salute, drumming and other military elements, with a flag draping over the coffin.
A private service held in a private cemetery can still have military honors, although they will be less formal and may be performed by an honor guard from the local VA rather than from a military base.
