STEVENSON — Columbia Gorge Museum held a Veterans Day Ceremony on Nov. 11. Above is a slideshow from the event.
Veterans Day honors all living and deceased military veterans who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces. The holiday celebrates all military personnel who served in the U.S. Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Coast Guard, and Space Force — both living and past, during times of war and peace.
