Wreaths Across America 2017, Ft Rosecrans, San Diego - 16 DEC 17
« on: December 11, 2017, 09:58:06 PM »
Wreaths Across America is a non-profit organization dedicated to honoring and thanking our veterans for their service and sacrifice. The Wreaths Across America mission is to “Remember, Honor, and Teach”. The annual wreath laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery started in 1992 is now performed around the country at over 1100 cemeteries.
 
Wreaths are placed on the graves of our Fallen Heroes by Patriots who know the sacrifice paid by these brave warriors and wish to recognize their service.
 
At precisely the same time across the country the ceremony begins every year, the Patriot Guard Riders are privileged to be invited to be part of this event.
