Before the traditional ceremony, the Post, with the help of two Boy Scouts, unveiled the new flag disposal box to be placed in City Hall.
It was a day of memorable speeches by World War II hero Frank Tolve, Author Benjamin Patton, grandson of General George S. Patton, and dedicated volunteer Arthur Stampleman.
