 In this version of the schema the order of the symbols in the compound determines the draw order.  Here, the start and end symbols are drawn on top of the dashing.  For the start symbol the !StartOffset and Repeat are set to 0.  This ensures the symbol is only drawn once at the start of the feature.  Likewise, for the end symbol we set the !EndOffset and Repeat to 0.  We also want !OverlapNoWrap for the !VertexControl.  The symbol can overlap a vertex, but we simply want to “stamp” it – no bending around vertices.
 
-One other note: the default AngleControl behavior is FromGeometry.  This means the angle of the start / end symbol will be computed from the geometry, as shown here.

+If you wanted the start / end symbol angles to be a fixed value you would change !AngleControl to !FromAngle and specify the Angle, e.g.
