If you do not receive the printed edition, you may list the veteran's name, rank, dates of service and address on a piece of paper and mail it to American Legion, c/o P.O. Box 134, Marion, KY 42064.
Those names received will be honored during a Memorial Day ceremony at Mapleview Cemetery in Marion on May 26. Each honoree will receive a certificate of honor from the U.S. Army.
