Record crowd turns out for WAA
Tuesday, December 15, 2015
BLOOMFIELD -- Ideal weather helped draw a record crowd to the 2015 Wreaths Across America Saturday at the Missouri State Veterans Cemetery to honor veterans who have lost their lives, been prisoners of war or missing in action or have served their country in military service. It was the tenth year the program has been held at the cemetery, and the eighth consecutive year that enough money has been raised to place a wreath of every grave in the cemetery. An estimated crowd of 750 attended the event.
