Veteran’s Day Memorial – The American Flag

Yes, Veterans Day was celebrated yesterday but I think any day is a great day to remember our vets and thank them for a job well done. My local community college and a chapter of the Rotary club in town decided to celebrate our vets and current service men and women. The first Field of Honor opened at the college on November 3 and remained open until November 11 in honor of Veterans, current military, police officers, firefighters and other first responders.

The Field consisted of 1,000 large United States flags – 1,000 flags lined up and lit all night long in honor of our service men and women. The flags are sponsored by various businesses and individual from the community. It was a stunning sight to see and I made sure to go over and get several pictures to share. I love this! The closing ceremonies were on Veterans day with a parade following. Enjoy!
