Yesterday every village of the Town of Smithtown was packed with patriots, marching bands, scout troops and elected officials to pay a special tribute to at least three generations of Armed Forces and active service men and women. Every Memorial Day parade and ceremony was a spectacular site to witness. Smithtown Today took to the streets to record an extraordinary message of thanks to our service men and women, from local business owners, Smithtown residents and patriotic officials.
Check back today and throughout the remaining work week for special features about important foundations for our Veterans, Spotlights on Local Heroes, Companies who go above and beyond to support our troops and the many ways we can do our part to show our service men and women how grateful we are for their service. Stay tuned for much more coverage from the Memorial Day parades, photos and fun videos!
Note: Some of the video messages may be a little tricky to hear… But we were so moved by our fellow residents that we couldn’t leave one out!
