Remember. Honor. Teach. They are simple words with much weight to the non-profit, Wreaths Across America. It seeks financial contributions and volunteers to lay wreaths across cemeteries for service members who are no longer with us. The Valor Podcast’s Nick Layman speaks with Vietnam veteran and Chairman of Wreaths Across American, Wayne Hanson on the story and mission of the non-profit.
- ARLINGTON, Va. (AFPN) — Christmas wreaths adorn head stones at Arlington National Cemetery. The 14th annual wreath laying event is the result of Worcester Wreath Company’s owner Morrill Worcester’s, childhood dream of doing something to honor those laid to rest in the national cemetery. More than 5,000 donated wreaths were placed by volunteers this year. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt. Jim Varhegyi)
