12th-Year Wreaths Across America - Kona Composite Squadron
Kona, Hawaii - On December 17th, the Civil Air Patrol Cadets of the Kona Composite Squadron along with the sponsors named below, participated in the 12th year of supporting Wreaths Across America and placing 612 wreaths at the West Hawaii Veterans Cemetery. This is a tradition of placing wreaths on the headstones of our Nation's fallen heroes at Arlington National Cemetery and hundreds of other veterans’ cemeteries across the country during the holidays. The mission – to Remember, Honor, and Teach about the sacrifices made by our veterans – has captured the hearts and minds of many communities across the country.
