Wreaths Across America is a national non-profit and movement dedicated to ensuring veterans' headstones are adorned with a wreath for the holiday season. Many platoons throughout TMC will be sending platoons to participate in the wreath laying ceremony. There will be a brief ceremony onsite and then wreath laying will begin. Washington Crossing National Cemetery serves as the final resting place for an impressive 16,000 veterans. By the end of the event, every single headstone will have a wreath. The whole event should only take a couple of hours. For more information, please visit Wreaths Across America's website: https://www.wreathsacrossamerica.org/pages/17127/Overview/?relatedId=150000
