October 15, 2025 – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
On Tuesday, November 11, at 11:00 a.m., the annual Veterans Day Ceremony will be held at the Great Falls Freedom Memorial. The ceremony will honor all who have served our country in the Armed Forces.
The historic tradition of holding Veterans Day ceremonies at “the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month” commemorates the armistice which took effect at that same time in 1918 to end World War I.
The Freedom Memorial is located behind the Great Falls Library at 9830 Georgetown Pike. The ceremony is open to all. Parking is available in the library lot. In case of rain, the ceremony will move to the Grange. Limited seating and shelter will be provided. Attendees are encouraged but not required to bring portable chairs.
Our speaker will be GFFM Board President Andy Wilson, who was interviewed by the American Veterans Center regarding his Army Ranger combat experiences during the Vietnam War.
