🇺🇸 Better Late Than Never! 🇺🇸

On Saturday, August 8th, members of William McKinley Camp #21, Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War, proudly participated in the Baltimore Festival Parade with this patriotic display!

A special thank you goes to the members who stepped up and helped us put everything together on short notice. Your time and dedication made it possible for the Camp to once again represent the memory of the Union veterans and share our patriotic mission with the community.

And we aren’t finished yet! Keep an eye out for two new upcoming events in Logan, Ohio, as we continue our work honoring America’s veterans—including special recognition of the Medal of Honor and those who have earned our nation’s highest military decoration.

🇺🇸 Honor the past. Remember their service. Carry the legacy forward.

Commander Mason A Prater
