Memorial Day Flag Placement and Retirement

Memorial Day Weekend, Troop 48 helped the Berlin VFW place flags on veterans’ graves at the Berlin Cemetery. Afterwards, we went to the Berlin VFW where we held a flag retirement ceremony for the VFW. Finally, the VFW threw a thank you lunch for everyone.

Thank you to everyone who came out to the flag placement and/or flag retirement ceremonies and helped out! Big thank you to Assistant Scoutmaster Steve Teti for putting together the flag retirement ceremony and working with the Scouts to run it!
