The public is invited to attend a Veterans Day ceremony presented by Mercer County Veteran Services in conjunction with the Mercer County Veterans Council. The event is slated to take place Sunday, November 8, 2015, at noon and will be held at the Catholic War Veterans Post 417 located at 301 Grand Street in Trenton.
Mercer County Executive Brian M. Hughes will join with other County and local officials to give recognition and appreciation to the many County residents who have served in America’s armed forces. Hughes will give brief remarks at the ceremony, and remarks by Master Sgt. Stephan Simmins, Maryland National Guard, will follow.
This year’s program will also feature the laying of a wreath to honor veterans’ service, a salute to fallen veterans by American Legion Post 31, and the playing of taps by Walter Kramarz of the Mercer County Veterans Council.
