Veterans Day- 11 Nov 2023

This was one of those perfect days at the Memorial.

The group stopped and drew attention to the Armistice Day notch as the shadow passed through it at the 11:00 hour on 11/11.

10 am: Rolling Thunder KY Chapter 5 held their annual ceremony, including opening prayer, Flag pledge, National Anthem, several speakers, closing prayer, and TAPS.

10:45 am: Board members Jerry Cecil and Frank Cannavo conducted a briefing to the Chapter members and about 15-20 other visitors who gathered on the Plaza.

11:15 am: University of Kentucky Air Force ROTC cadets arrived after their morning marathon from UK’s Buell Armory to the Memorial to conduct their annual POW/MIA Memorial program.  There were 64 Cadets + cadre. Once again, Jerry  and Frank explained the meaning of the Memorial and how it works.
