What Are We Doing?
|
The Military Hometown Heroes Banner Program was created to honor and recognize military personnel that reside or have resided in the City of Topeka; those who can and do call Topeka their hometown. The program is funded through payments and donations which enable the purchase and placement of the banners on City lampposts. Banners will be displayed from September 11 to Veterans Day each year.

Some of us have no idea what it's like to serve in the Military, or you have served and you know exactly what it is like to serve on foreign soil in war time. You know what it is like to come home after war struggling with night terrors, survivors guilt, memory loss among other things. Those of us who haven't served do not have any idea about the true cost of freedom.
