Twice per year, before Memorial Day and Veterans Day, members of the Florida American Legion Post 83 family and volunteers from the community gather before dawn to deploy over 880 crosses topped with flags along both sides of a 1.7 mile stretch of U.S. 90 in Macclenny and Glen St. Mary, Fla. Heroes Forever, a program of Post 83 since January 2024, was established by Charlotte and Buck Oden and the Baker Conservative Women’s Network in November 2018 to provide a visible and inspiring tribute honoring veterans. This program brings the Legion Family, Baker County, the City of Macclenny and the town of Glen St. Mary together in this awe-inspiring display of honor and patriotism.
