As usual… we honor our veterans every Veteran’s Day and Memorial Day by helping place flags on the grave markers of 57,000 veterans before the holiday.
And collecting the flags again a few days after the holiday.
The need for volunteers is crucial. There isn’t enough staff at the cemetery to place all these flags.
Volunteers come from all over. We’re only one motorcycle group who does this faithfully.
There is a Corvette group who also comes along with Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. Military families are great in numbers also.
Patriotism is alive and well. I love to see the children come and hear the speeches and understand the sacrifices made to preserve our freedom.
