Video Of Local Firefighters Escorting Wreaths Across America

On Saturday 12 December 2015, thousands of volunteers will again descend on Arlington National Cemetery to “Remember, Honor, and Teach” in an annual wreath laying event for our veterans buried in the cemetery. Every December since 1992, rain, snow or shine, volunteers have joined the Wreaths Across America organization and placed wreaths on veterans’ graves.

Wreaths Across America expects 40 trucks and over 130,000 wreaths.

On Saturday December 5th, Local fire departments had the opertunity to escort a Wreaths Across America truck.

Valley Regional Fire, West Hazleton Fire, Sugarloaf Township Fire, and McAdoo Fire escorted the truck through the area, stopping at Turkey Hill in Humboldt for a special awards presentation.
