Remembering veterans and firefighters

If you are planning to purchase a Military Tribute banner for the 2019 season, now is the time to order it, especially if you have strong feelings about whether or not it hangs in Highland Falls versus Fort Montgomery.

Back on November 11, Veterans Day, Senator James Skoufis virtually inducted Highlands Councilman Tyrone King as a member of the state’s Veterans Hall of Fame.

Members of the West Point-Highland Falls Rotary Club, and a few related teens, gathered at Peacedale Cemetery on Sunday afternoon to pick up American flags before disbursing to the town’s other cemeteries to place flags on the graves of veterans.
