The PGR will once again participate in the Wreaths Across America program at Ft. Rosecrans National Cemetery.
 
This is a nation wide program to remember our country's Military Heroes by celebrating them and laying wreaths on their graves.  What a wonderful way to remember our Heroes for the holidays.
 
All programs at national cemeteries across the country begin this celebration at 0900 (PST) promptly, so that we are all joined in unison nationwide.
