In honor of Veterans’ Day, volunteers from the VFW, Young Marines, Coushatta Chute DAR, and friends of Springville Cemetery placed 260 American Flags at the graves of all service men and women.

Coushatta Chute Regent Norma Lester told the volunteers that these honored people protected our freedom in peacekeeping and war. “We must never forget them.”

Lester quoted George Washington, “These flags stand for dignity, honor, and protection of all who love liberty and equality and who claim the sheltering protection it has always given.”
