2011 September 11th Memorial Event at SU






One more 9-11 post, this one is from the memorial event at Shippensburg University put on by the Student Veterans of America. Due to intermittent rain showers the ceremony was held inside Memorial Auditorium. There were speeches by several veterans and dignitaries including the two I have shown here, US Army Sergeant Joshua Lang a combat veteran who now serves in the PA Army National Guard while attending Shippensburg University and Dr. William Ruud, President of Shippensburg University. They started things off with a 21 gun salute and taps and ended with cannon fire. Again this year they filled the area in front of Ezra Lehman Library with flags.
