Wreaths group, CAP join forces
Every year the Civil Air Patrol has a drive to obtain wreaths for the Minnesota State Veterans Cemetery.
“We are pleased to announce this year will be different as the Brainerd Squadron of the CAP has joined forces with WreathsForTheFallen.org and is now able to offer grave-specific requests”, John Thomas, president of WreathsForTheFallen.org., said. “Cadets and senior members of the Brainerd squadron of the Civil Air Patrol will soon be knocking on doors in the Crow Wing, Aitkin, Cass, and Morrison county areas and anyone that would like a wreath specifically designated to honor a loved one at the Minnesota State Veterans Cemetery can do so by providing the necessary information when they are called on by the CAP member. There is no additional cost for this service”, Thomas said.
Thomas said that working together should ensure the organizations are able to honor all our country’s fallen veterans and their families at the Minnesota State Veterans Cemetery.
Additional information may be obtained by contacting Thomas at 829-6622.
