Annual Veteran’s Day Ceremony - The Institute for American Indian Studies
*The event has already taken place on this date: Sun, 11/03/2024
Join us for an outdoor ceremony to acknowledge the sacrifices of this year’s honorees as well as all veterans, Native and Non-Native, who have served our country. Following the ceremony, attendees are invited to enjoy some warm beverages and light refreshments. Did you know that Native Americans have served in the United States military with the highest record of service per capita when compared to any other ethnic group? Each year IAIS honors several local Native Americans who have served in the Armed Forces. This year, we will be joined by the Crow Hill Singers drum group led by Aaron Athey (Mohegan) based out of Uncasville, CT, who will provide honor songs to help recognize the veterans’ contributions.
