Wreaths Across America 2023

December 16, 2023

12:00 PM - 03:00 PM EST

Pittsburgh Platoon

Event overview

Remember the fallen. Honor those who serve. Teach the next generation the value of freedom. It’s the mission of Wreaths Across America. This year the Pittsburgh platoon is joining Wreaths Across America in their mission by placing wreaths on the gravesite of fallen service members. So that each volunteer has the opportunity to lay a wreath, we ask that you do not take more than 1-2 wreaths per person. The purpose is to remember and honor our veterans by saying their name, so we'd like you to take time to reflect at each grave when you lay the wreath.

There will be an After Party Social Event at 31 Sports Bar and Grille. Meal and nonalcoholic beverages on us!
