We are now ready for the next phase of our yearlong Wreaths Across America activities, which is one of the most important parts of the program, the selling and placing of wreaths in our nation’s cemeteries. It is your opportunity to again honor veterans in your community and, in the process, help raise funds for your squadron. Whether you are an experienced Wreaths Across America participant or a squadron new to this project, you will welcome the Quick Start Pamphlet designed to make this project extremely easy to implement. Included are an overview of the program, answers to frequently asked questions, a sample location ceremony, a copy of the various forms you will need and a checklist to help keep you on track.
Our goal this year is 100 percent participation in Wreaths Across America, and thanks to this Quick Start Pamphlet, that goal should be easily attainable for everyone. I wish each of you all the best in promoting this program, not only on behalf of our nation’s veterans but also as a way to benefit your squadron’s other priorities.
Best Regards,
Maj Gen Charles L Carr, Jr.
