Veterans from across the state will gather later this month in Livingston County for the 35th annual reunion of the Michigan Chapter of the 101st Airborne Division Association.
The 501(c) (3) veteran’s organization represents the Michigan Airborne/Air Assault community with those in attendance at the memorial banquet expected to include those who served in WWII, Korea, Vietnam and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The group’s memorial banquet will take place at the Hampton Inn in Brighton on Saturday, September 17th during which they will remember and honor their soldiers and families, specifically, fallen comrades and their families, those currently serving in harm’s way and/or on active duty, POWs and MIAs, and all those serving in a support capacity.
Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin’s office will also be providing a flag flown over the U.S. Capitol in Washington D.C. for the event.
