Legion will honor vets on Monday
The David Ketchum Post 115 of the American Legion will hold Memorial Day Ceremonies at the Ketchum Cemetery on Monday May 31, at 11 a.m.
The plot of each Veteran in the Ketchum Cemetery will have a white cross and an American Flag placed on it by members of the American Legion.
The ceremonies will also honor the dedication of the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C., on this Memorial Day Weekend. The memorial is "A Tribute to a Generation" of men and women who served to protect our freedom during WWII.
Members of the American Legion will conduct ceremonies to Honor the Dead of our Service Personnel. The American Legion Honor Guard will march into the cemetery with our Nation’s Flag. A speech and a prayer will be presented followed by a rifle salute to our fallen comrades. The ceremonies will conclude with the playing of "Taps".
The public is encouraged to attend and seating will be provided. All of those in attendance are invited to return to the David Ketchum Post of the American Legion for a light luncheon and refreshments and a gathering of friends.
The Idaho Mountain Express is distributed free to residents and guests throughout the Sun Valley, Idaho resort area community. Subscribers to the Idaho Mountain Express will read these stories and others in this week's issue.
