The Decatur County veteran and special persons banner ribbon cutting was held on Friday. According to Visit Greensburg and Bicentennial Director John Pratt, this event had one of the best turnouts of the bicentennial celebrations. In attendance were numerous veterans, including at least 10 who were Bronze Star recipients, and their families representing those shown in the banners.
The Decatur County Community Foundation was the funding behind this project with the Ella Jo Briggs Veterans Field of Interest Fund. The foundation created a virtual tour for those who wish to learn more about the individuals represented on the banners. Click here for the virtual veteran and special persons banner tour.
