[2017] Wreaths Across America at FSHNC (208-17) 16 DEC 17

Post by sgtmack » 13 Dec 2017, 08:22

At the invitation of Wreaths Across America – San Antonio, Join us on National Wreaths Across America Day, December 16, 2017. Each December on National Wreaths Across America Day, our mission to Remember, Honor and Teach is carried out by coordinating wreath-laying ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery as well as over 1,100 additional locations in all 50 U.S. states, at sea, and abroad.

We will participate in a LEO supported procession into FSHNC where upon arrival we will form a flag line for the opening Ceremonies. Please be extra cautious, there are a lot of attendees, and with construction there is only one way in and one way out so be patient and prepared to wait for a while (Semper Gumby).
