Rain didn’t deter people from honoring local veterans
U. S. Oval, Plattsburgh October 7, 2023 – People didn’t let heavy rain keep them from attending the Send-Off Ceremony for North Country Honor Flights 50 and 51 this morning at 7 a.m. There are three Korean War Veterans, four Cold War Veterans and twenty-one Vietnam Veterans flying today. The heavy rail subsided during the ceremony and resumed shortly after it ended.
Here are a few photos of this morning’s ceremony. The Peru Gazette will post individual photos and biographies of each veteran on Sunday or Monday.
