Wreaths Across America was celebrated at the West Point Cemetery Saturday, Dec. 1 at noon. Hundreds gathered for the event emplacing one wreath on each grave in the cemetery. Dr. Todd Crowder, United States Military Academy professor, presided as the master of ceremonies for the event. Crowder invited gold star family members to gather the wreath for their loved ones and stand to be recognized by the crowd. Others who had come to place wreaths for their loved ones were also named as they retrieved their wreaths.
