Our mission to Remember, Honor and Teach is carried out by coordinating wreath-laying ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery, as well as at more than 2,100 additional locations in all 50 U.S. states, at sea and abroad. Join us by sponsoring a veteran's wreath at the Southeast Louisiana Veterans Cemetery in Slidell. With every wreath that is sponsored, $5 will be donated to the Post to help us continue serving veterans in our area.
