Cub Scout Pack #173 placed American flags on the graves of veterans at Centre Presbyterian Church and Fair View United Methodist Church in Mt. Mourne on Sunday to honor the service of the veterans to our great nation. The flag placement was done after the Cub Scouts learned why we observe Veterans Day.

Several veterans shared what branch of service they were in and what being a veteran meant to them.

Over 100 graves were marked to honor the veterans for Veterans Day.

Scouts placed flags on veteran graves in the Center Presbyterian Church Historic Cemetery, where American Revolution and Civil War veterans are buried.
