Annual Placing of Flags at Lone Mountain Cemetery Honors Departed Veterans in Carson City and beyond
Each year during the Memorial Day weekend, our departed veterans are honored with a flag placement at the Lone Mountain Cemetery in Carson City.
This year, Carson City's Chapter 7 of Disabled Veterans of America once again coordinated the placing of U.S. flags at the graves of departed veterans on Friday.
Flags were placed across the veterans' section of the cemetery, as well as on the graves of outlier service members who were buried outside the veterans area.
Service members from all of the wars were honored with a flag on their grave marker.
The community was invited to attend, with social distancing guidelines in place.
Flag pick-up will take place on Monday, May 4 at 4 p.m.
