CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich., October 14, 2008 — Resurrection Cemetery will debut an inspirational Field of Honor and dedicate southeastern Michigan’s newest Veteran’s Section on November 11, 2008 at 1:00 p.m. on the cemetery grounds. The Field of Honor will focus on military men and women from the State of Michigan who sacrificed for this country, featuring an eight-foot flag for each of the nearly 200 fallen soldiers and a scroll with each soldier’s name.
The event will begin with a procession of the Patriot Guard riders. The playing of the National Anthem will follow a parade of colors for each branch of the military. The Sulfridge Air Force Base will conduct a flyover as a tribute to Michigan’s honored soldiers. Major-General Scott West, Commander of the U.S. Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command, is the guest military speaker for the event. The Birmingham Bloomfield Symphony Orchestra will play “God Bless America,” followed by a rifle salute, to conclude the memorial event.
Resurrection Cemetery is located on Clinton River Road at Romeo Plank Road in Clinton Township. For more information on this Veteran’s Day memorial event, the public can call 1-800-989-9020 or visit www.mtelliott.com.
