Nathaniel's Scouting Adventures

Today, Troop 599 Scouts are spending Veterans Day in service — honoring those who have served and protected our country.

This morning, our Scouts placed flags at veterans’ graves to show respect and remembrance. Tonight, they will return to help retire those same flags with the same care and gratitude they were placed.

Scouts also placed flags at the homes of community members who help support the troop through our year-round Flag Service Program, where we place and retire flags on important U.S. holidays.

As Scouts, we know our freedom isn’t free — it’s safeguarded by the courage and sacrifice of our veterans. Today, we say thank you for your service and your example.
