Plan on coming out for the 3rd Annual “A Walk to Remember our Fallen”: Sponsored by the Pennsylvania Military Museum and A Soldier's Hands
A Soldier’s Hands is a non-profit partner of Carry The Load (CTL). CTL provides active ways to honor and remember our nation’s heroes by connecting Americans to the importance of Memorial Day. Join us as we honor and acknowledge those who lost their lives while defending our country. Walk if able or bring a chair and listen. Together, let's share stories and say their names. Doing so keeps their memory alive. #Whoareyoucarrying
