SUMMARY:2026 Commemoration of Purple Heart Day
DESCRIPTION:On August 7th\, 2026 at 11:00 am\, the Richard E. Cowan Chapter 558 of the Military Order of the Purple Heart and Veterans Memorial Park will host an event to honor and commemorate recipients of the Purple Heart Medal.  The ceremony will be held near the Park’s Purple Heart Memorial. \nThe Purple Heart Medal is awarded to members of the armed forces of the U.S. who are wounded by an instrument of war in the hands of the enemy and posthumously to the next of kin in the name of those who are killed in action or die of wounds received in action. It is specifically a combat decoration. \nThe organization now known as the “Military Order of the Purple Heart\,” was formed in 1932 for the protection and mutual interest of all who have received the decoration. Composed exclusively of Purple Heart recipients\, it is the only veterans service organization comprised strictly of “combat” veterans. \nThe event will include a bugler playing the National Anthem\, recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance\, Chaplain’s Invocation and brief remarks by Guest Speaker MSG Jason Hartley.  After a 3-volley rifle salute by American Legion Post 4\, the bugler will sound Taps to conclude the ceremony.  The event is open to the public\, but seating will not be provided.  Guests who wish to be seated are welcome to bring their own chairs.
