Remembrance Day banners planned for Main Street Palmerston

The  Main Street here will be adorned with commemorative Remembrance Day banners this fall.

The banners will be on display from early October until after Nov. 11.

Each has the name and picture of a veteran along with the military branch they served in. The intention behind these banners is to engage the community in remembering the local veterans and who they were.

“Walking down Palmerston Main Street, and seeing the faces of those who have served our country, might prompt residents and visitors to take an interest in and ask questions about them,” state officials of the Frank Lambier Legion Branch 409, Palmerston.

The branch is celebrating its 70th anniversary this year.

“It’s in this way the project encapsulates the ‘Lest We Forget’ theme of Remembrance Day, ensuring continued recognition and respect throughout future generations.”
