Wreaths Across America Recognition at Legislative Hall

December 16, 2022

DECEMBER 12, 2022 – House and Senate Republicans joined other state officials, military veterans, citizens, and school children earlier today at Legislative Hall for the annual Wreaths Across America service.

As part of the ceremonies, wreaths were laid at eight monuments on the grounds of the capitol honoring the service of Delaware’s fallen military men and women. The mission of Wreaths Across America is “to remember, honor, and teach.”

As part of this initiative, wreath-laying ceremonies are held during December at Arlington National Cemetery, as well as at more than 3,400 additional locations in all 50 U.S. states, at sea, and abroad.

As part of the observation, wreaths will be placed at the Veterans Cemetery in Millsboro on Saturday.To learn more, use this link: https://www.wreathsacrossamerica.org/.
