Selma makes a point of honoring our U.S. veterans, especially our local ones. Every year, a ceremony with speeches, ROTC units and local school organizations is held in front of Memorial Stadium amid the veterans' monuments. I took this photo at last year's ceremony during which the Southside High School ROTC served as color guard and presented a flag-folding demonstration.
I think most every community must have had some kind of memorial ceremony this week.
ReplyDeleteNicely done!
There's something so moving about a hometown ceremony on Veteran's Day. Everyone there feels so connected.
