Several of our members are based in Mexico and, in addition to being members of our branch, they are also members of the Army, Navy and Air Force Association in Canada (ANAVETS) – Unit #19 (Mexico).
The ANAVETS Mexico chapter was requested to assist as the working staff for a Memorial Day event by the President of the American Legion is Post #7 (Chapala). Several Canadian veterans, including branch member Larry Wooley, had the privilege to plant flags and flowers on graves of American veterans at the Chapala City Cemetery. Comrade Wooley also served as the Sergeant-at-Arms in the flag party for the event that was associated with the commemoration earlier today. Pictured below are two of the Canadian veterans placing these items (including Comrade Wooley in his Sgt-at-Arms hat).
