On Tuesday the Commissioners for St. Mary’s County held a proclamation ceremony to recognize September as Forget Me Not month in the county.
Members of the Disabled American Veterans, St. Mary’s Chapter 26, were on hand to receive the proclamation. The proclamation recognizes and supports those who have fought for our country in military service.
During the month of September, the St. Mary’s County Disabled American Veterans will hold their annual sale of Forget-Me-Nots in honor those who served in all wars in defense of freedom. The blue flower, received after giving a donation, is a symbol of love, hope, and remembrance for those who have suffered or have been lost in war.
