Veterans Day Remembrance at Columbia State Historic Park

The Columbia Grenadine Belles and Columbia Militia will host the annual Veterans Day Remembrance at the Columbia Cemetery on Tuesday, November 11. The ceremony begins promptly at 10:55 a.m. in the Veterans Section, with a flag raising and the traditional two minutes of silence at 11 a.m. to honor local veterans who lost their lives in war. The Grenadine Belles will share the history and significance of Veterans Day and read the roll call of veterans buried in this section of the cemetery. To conclude this moving ceremony of remembrance, the Columbia Militia will fire a single volley, followed by the playing of Taps.
