Today’s Star Spangled Salute honor Wreaths Across America. 1992, a wreath company in Maine had a surplus of wreaths and an idea to honor our nations veterans. Yesterday, one of the caravans loaded with 15,000 wreaths left a distribution area in Raymond, NH to deliver wreaths to more than 1600 veterans’ cemeteries coast to coast. Walmart donates the tractor trailers and drivers to the cause and this year the mission is to lay 1.8 million veteran wreaths across the country.
This Saturday you can participate in the wreath laying ceremony at the Kansas Veterans Cemetery in Winfield. CLICK HERE for more info.
