REMEMBER the Fallen. . . HONOR those who Serve. . . TEACH our children the value of Freedom.

Welcome to the Capt Edgar Dale American Legion Post 81's Wreaths Across America Page. The American Legion is a Veterans Organization supporting Veterans both present and past.

On 12/14/2024 at 11:00 am Capt Edgar Dale American Legion Post 81 will be helping Wreaths Across America to Remember and Honor our veterans by laying Remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country's fallen heroes. 

Please help us Honor and Remember as many fallen heroes as possible by sponsoring remembrance wreaths, volunteering on Wreaths Day, or inviting your family and friends to attend with you.
