Franklin’s Veterans’ organizations, the Edward L. Grant American Legion Post 75, and the Veteran’s of Foreign Wars Post 3402, under the auspices of the Town’s Veterans Council, have developed a program to further honor those who died for our nation, to ensure they are remembered, and their stories are kept alive.
The brief program will include
- the placing of a Memorial Wreath for the day
- the playing of Taps
- a salute from those present
- a reading of whatever history may be available for that veteran
This is a way of keeping the memory of that veteran alive.
The program is conducted on the Franklin Town Common along the Veterans Walkway by the granite column of the individual being remembered on the day of their recorded passing.
Franklin TV has been recording each of the recognition ceremonies and they can all be found here (the most recent on top, the earlier in 2024 are found as you scroll down)
