The theme of the memorial service is to honor the lives of the military who died in battle during hostile actions or later as a result injuries suffered during those hostilities.
Paul Vigna | [email protected] theme of the memorial service – held this year in the parking lot near the Pennsylvania Veterans Memorial, while the memorial undergoes renovations, in the National Cemetery on the Sunday before Memorial Day – is to honor the lives of the military who died in battle during hostile actions or later as a result injuries suffered during those hostilities.
John Spruyt, director of IGNC, was scheduled to welcome the audience. Col. Keith E. Burkepile, senior Marine and assistant professor at the Army War College in Carlisle, delivered the keynote address. Joseph Snyder, Memorial Council vice president, served as the master of ceremonies. In addition to a guest speaker, a band was scheduled to play a few selections of music or a choir will perform several renditions of appropriate songs and wreaths are symbolically placed memorializing those who died in the service of their country.
The Avenue of Flags display on the cemetery will be flown through Veterans Day Week. The Avenue of Flags is made up of casket flags that have been donated by veterans’ families. State, territories, and service flags will also be flown. If you purchase a product or register for an account through one of the links on our site, we may receive compensation.
