The first of 36 wreath-laying ceremonies to commemorate Memorial Day in Missoula revealed a poignant memory for local U.S. Naval Master Chief Petty Officer Terry Zieba.
A sparse crowd of about 50 people, not counting participants, were at Rose Memorial Park on Sunday afternoon to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the 9-11 terrorist attacks on America.
Several generations of soldiers, some active duty, but most retired, along with dozens of onlookers, gathered near the Doughboy statue on the grounds of the Missoula County Courthouse to honor their fallen brethren on Memorial Day, 2015.
In commemoration of the anniversary of 9/11, Montana Governor Steve Bullock has ordered all American flags to be flown at half-staff on Thursday, September 11.
