Weinberger Buried at Arlington Cemetery
Caspar Weinberger was remembered at a funeral service at Ft. Myer Memorial Chapel as a Defense secretary who took on totalitarian regimes and helped to end the Cold War -- and also hid chocolate in his desk and liked to catch a daytime nap.
Weinberger, who was President Reagan’s Pentagon chief, died last week at 88 in Maine. He was buried at Arlington National Cemetery after the service attended by Vice President Dick Cheney, former Reagan officials and former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.
