Four honor guards who escorted the casket bearing former Philippine president Corazon Aquino stood motionless during the nine-hour and 12-mile funeral procession of the departed leader Wednesday.
Police officer Danilo Malab Jr., 25, army soldier Antonio Cadiente, 23, air force officer Gener Laguindan, 24, and navy officer Edgardo Rodriguez, 37, endured thirst, hunger, rain and the discomfort of not peeing during the unexpected lengthy procession from a church in Manila to a cemetery in Paranaque City.
