I would think the typical ATC freqs in that area would be used.  Also 
depending upon what military aircraft fly over there may be a liaison in the 
stadium directly talking with the aircraft on a discreet frequency 
(air/ground).  Sometimes though, the liasion just has a cellphone and talks 
directly back to the flying unit's command post (if in the same geographic 
area), and that command post relays the information to the aircraft.

Yes it is a sad day when fallen warriors are finally laid to rest.  One can 
only wonder in anguish what that military member endured prior to his death. 
Also we should be thinking about the families love ones of the other 4000 + 
military members that have died in this war.  (Up to date casualty counts 
can be found at:  http://icasualties.org/oif/)

Also 29,780 military members have been "seriously" wounded  See:

Please don't take any of the references as a political statement, it was 
what I found doing a quick google search.
