Wreaths Across America, a movement based in Maine, sent wreaths across the country to be laid at the headstones of veterans to honor their sacrifice all in one day.

The city of Brewer was one of roughly 4,600 communities across the U.S. that participated in Wreaths Across America events Saturday to honor and remember the sacrifices veterans made for our country.

“We are honored to host Wreaths Across America Day 2024. This day provides visitors an opportunity to reflect on the importance of service and learn the stories of the men and women who fought for our country,” said Executive Director of the Office of Army Cemeteries and Army National Military Cemeteries Karen Durham-Aguilera.
