Marking the date with honor and respect in Worthington

Tuesday, September 11, 2018

Worthington American Legion Post 106 conducted a flag retirement ceremony at the Post on Sept. 11, the seventeenth anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the United States. Veterans and assembled guests watched as the NJROTC Color Guard Unit from Bloomfield Jr/Sr High School opened the ceremony, a moment of silence was observed for those we lost that day, a poem was read and Taps was played.
