can take them out at their convenience to the cemetery.
2. Dog Tag
Remembrance - The WAA national office offers a Dog Tag program.

One tag goes with you and the other tag is taken to Maine and hung on one of
the balsam trees in their honor. The family is welcome to come up to

Directors is taking a group trip later this Fall to Maine. On the trip we
will be personally hanging the dog tags from Houston. There is no charge
for this.
