Lest We Forget (CBS News)
From CBS News:
By Bil Geist
CBS Sunday Morning
When the Van Doren brothers returned from World War II they volunteered to place flags on Veteran’s graves near their home in Clyde, Ohio. They had no idea this would become a tradition carried out by Van Dorens for years to come. More than 60 years later, under the command of Wayne Van Doren - who was just 7 years old when he began placing flags with his dad and uncle - three generations of the Van Doren family will put flags on more than 1200 Veteran’s graves in six cemeteries near Clyde this Memorial Day. It is a task they consider a privilege and a Memorial Day ritual they plan to continue for many years to come.
