Remembrance Day

Remembrance Day 2018 is quickly approaching. This is a mandatory for all cadets. The cadets will assist the Legion in setting up the Hall on Nov.5  for the service on the 11th. 5 Cadets will be asked to carry the flags for the service on the 11 and at the school service.

We ask that all cadets attend a service. Because so many cadets live out of town you are authorized to attend the Remembrance Day service in your local community.  If there is no service offered you will come to Indian Head. In your home communities you may be asked to carry a flag, lay a wreath or participate in the service in some way, in some cases you may be the sole representative of people who wear uniforms. Your dress and deportment must be excellent at all times.

If you are attending a local service or you would like to wear your uniform to a school service you must let Captain Walton know in advance. You can email him @ 691hawk.gmail.com
