It was an honor to stand united with my colleagues and members of our community as we came together to honor and remember our POWs and MIAs.
We must never forget the brave men and women who answered the call to serve our nation—especially those who were prisoners of war or who never returned home. Their sacrifices, and the sacrifices of their families, must forever remain a part of our national memory. We owe it to them to keep their stories alive and to ensure that their service and sacrifice are never forgotten.
A special thank you to my colleague, Councilman DuWayne Gregory, who chairs our Town of Babylon Veterans Committee, for helping put this important remembrance together. I also want to thank American Legion POST 1634 West Babylon NY and the Post’s newly installed first female Commander, Ashley Mallon, for their continued dedication to our veterans and to preserving the memory of those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
You are not forgotten. You are not alone. We will always remember. 🇺🇸
