“The American Legion is also creating a memorial and allowing individuals to honor their relatives for their service in the military or family members with a commemorative brick engraved with their name and, if applicable, details of their service,” said Nemanich. “The bricks will be part of a perpetual display with our newly renovated cannon. You can see additional details or purchase a brick at alpost690.us.”
