Veteran Color Guard has currently suspended memorial services to include the annual Memorial Day Ceremony. All ceremonies, funerals, etc. are being recorded so that the veterans will receive honors at a later date. All VSO’s and TVSO’s should also be recording and tracking veteran memorial services and pass this information to the VA. Cemeteries are currently open for visitation; social distancing is still in effect and highly recommended.
