Anyone who’s walked down Center Street in Brandon has passed by the brass plaque commemorating all the local men and women who served in our armed forces, from World War I to Desert Storm. We’d like to tell their stories.
We’ll get to all the wars, but we’d like to start with those who served in WWI. We’re asking the community to let us know who these men were. If you know and would like to share a bit about their lives, please write to us at news@brandonreporter.com. Put “Veterans Plaque” in the subject line so we’re sure to read it.
We hope someone has information (and photographs!) they’re willing to share with us, so we can understand a bit more about the names we pass every day.
