This year
celebration is a special celebration as it is our 6th Anniversary.
Our mission is to sound live Taps every night (for 100 nights) from
Memorial Day to September 11th, at the New Hampshire State
Veterans Cemetery in Boscawen, and at Mount Calvary Cemetery
in Manchester. This year being the tenth anniversary of the attacks on our
nation, we are holding a very special remembrance ceremony and in a very special
way, renew our pledge to “Never Forget” the tragedy of 9/11/01 and the
brave first responders of that fateful day.
