WEST SEATTLE VETERANS DAY: Stars & Stripes in The Junction

If you go to The Junction before day’s end, you’ll see flags lining the street in the heart of the business district. They’re there thanks to the work of community volunteers led by West Seattle’s American Legion Post 160. It was an all-ages effort:

As they say, many hands make light work, and even if you weren’t there this morning, you can help with the 4 pm takedown – meet outside the Campbell Building on the NE corner of California/Alaska. And not long after that – as previewed here – Post 160 hosts its annual free Veterans Day spaghetti dinner for veterans, active-duty servicepeople, Guard and Reserve members and families, 5:30-7 pm, 3618 SW Alaska.

    Thank you, brave veterans of all generations. You’ve served with honor and made extraordinary sacrifices. It saddens me that our “president”-elect has made disparaging remarks about America’s veterans.

    We salute you!

    I use to put those up and take them down. That’s no easy task. Thanks you!!
