Families, veterans, and volunteers came together to remember the fallen soldiers at the National Remembrance Ceremony, which is very important to the armed forces community and those who have lost a fellow battle buddy or family member to combat.
This event started over 15 years ago, and only 5 honorees were given wreaths at the cemetery’s front entrance. Now, thousands of wreaths are placed at each headstone within the cemetery to commemorate those who lost their lives fighting for this country.
