We’re receiving about 21,000 wreaths this year,
and what we've done is,
we're not having a ceremony like we traditionally do,
and we will be doing our wreath handout,
in a drive-thru manner.
And we'll be able to go ahead and get these,
get the wreaths passed out to everybody
as they drive into the cemetery,
and they can place their wreaths
anywhere in the cemetery
to remember our fallen veterans.
Wreaths Across America is the one thing
that can bring everybody together,
and to go ahead and just remember our fallen veterans
and all the sacrifices our veterans
make on a daily basis, to preserve our freedoms.
