Those who made the ultimate sacrifice throughout the world conflicts were remembered and honored earlier this week on a cold and bitter November morning.

The American Legion Post #1479 held their Veteran's Day ceremony Monday. Post Commander Mike Cook led the ceremonies and talked about the significance of the day and the importance of remembering fallen comrades, and the event was concluded with a moment of silence and 21-gun salute at 11:11.

Later in the warmer legion hall the guests had refreshments and got together with old friends to tell stories and remember those no longer with us.
