The blustery cold wind and rain couldn’t dampen the spirits of the 200 volunteers who showed up at the Ohio Western Reserve National Cemetery on Saturday, December 18, to participate in Wreaths Across America. Fifty national cemeteries across the United States (at least one in each state), including Arlington National Cemetery in Washington, participated in this event where volunteers place Christmas wreaths at the head stones of those killed in action, missing in action, and veterans who have served and passed on the home front.
Twenty NEOPAT volunteers took on the responsibility of decoration the graves of those Missing In Action. Donations from NEOPAT donors, including Ernst & Young, help to support the event with the purchase of the wreaths for the Missing In Action section of the cemetery.
