New flags needed at the Nelson cemetery

 


The American flags lining the Nelson Cemetery on Memorial Day and other special times are a majestic and moving sight, but unfortunately Nebraska weather is hard on these symbols of the freedom we enjoy. The Nelson American Legion has recognized the need to replace a minimum of 38 flags, and at a cost of $50 per flag, this makes for a large financial commitment.

The American Legion family that includes veterans, auxiliary members and Sons of the American Legion have each committed a portion of the funds needed, but invite the community and family members of those interred in the Nelson cemetery to participate in the purchase of the flags.

If you would like to honor a friend or family member by participating in this project please contact any Legion Family member or stop in at the Legion Club.
