On December 7th, Governor Edwards joined Secretary Louisiana Department of Veterans Affairs Joey Strickland, COL (USA Retired), at a tree lighting ceremony to honor Louisiana’s fallen servicemen and women.
The event was held at Veteran’s Memorial Park. The U.S. Memorial Grove of Lights honors Gold Star Families, preserves the memory of the fallen, and stands as a reminder that freedom is never free.
