Communities Salute Their Veterans

Share photos of your local Veterans Day observances.

Throughout our area on Veterans Day, communities are honoring their veterans with parades and ceremonies in honor of those who served, fought, and in some cases, made the ultimate sacrifice defending our country and all that it stands for.

Tomorrow is a federal holiday in observance of the national day. Many towns took time today to host their celebrations of our nation's heroes.

Here are photos from the Somers parade and ceremony; please share photos and videos of your community's Veteran's Day observances here.

First of all, I don't understand why teachers are paying for anything out of pocket when the supplyRead More lists that parents receive at the end of the summer are as long as their arms. Secondly, SOCIETY lets the kids down?!?!? I think the school taxes in Yorktown should be sufficient so that the teachers don't have to pay any out-of-pocket expenses. SOCIETY does not let the kids down, it is those who are in control of the school tax monies who let the kids down. Perhaps the administrators should take salary cuts, or maybe we should even eliminate some of those administrative positions. No teacher should have to pay for supplies out of pocket.
