A great community event in Hartsville, South Carolina, this past Sunday, as the third wall of the Veteran's Memorial was dedicated. The Veterans Memorial, one of the largest in South Carolina, is located at Burry Park in downtown Hartsville. It is a memorial to all veterans as well as active military personnel. More than 200 people braved the Sunday afternoon heat to be part of this dedication. The Memorial itself was dedicated on November 11, 2010. The 246th Army Band was a highlight of the event. David L. Allen, a veteran of World War II gave the Keynote, a great discussion of Patriotism. I enjoyed this event for several reasons and primary among them is the way events like this help bring the community together.
