Veterans honored

3 - Newcastle, WY

Beginning Friday, May 28, Newcastle (Wyo.) ALR Post 3 was escorted by the local volunteer fire department to deliver a 20x30 American flag to Bucky Rawhauser, veteran and owner of Farnsworth Services. He had erected a 90-foot pole buried 19 feet in the ground. We performed the flag dedication and were given a free meal afterwards. On May 30, Post 3 volunteered putting flags in the graves of veterans at our local cemetery. Monday we held a ceremony with the color guard and honor guard performing a 21-gun salute.
Thanks to Auxiliary Unit 3 President Tonya Dafoe along with VFW Auxiliary Post 2516 President Tommi Yeager.
