As Memorial Day approaches, Peekskill American Legion 274 extends a heartfelt invitation to the community to join us in a poignant tradition of honoring our nation’s fallen heroes. On May 18, starting at 9 am, we will gather at Assumption, Hillside, and Van Cortlandtville cemeteries to place American flags at the gravesites of our service members. Additionally, on Sunday, May 19, we will meet at First Hebrew Cemetery.
