The Sons of the American Legion, Squadron 118, proudly present Cohasset’s Annual Healing Field® of Honor flag display in conjunction with the solemn remembrance of Memorial Day from May 24 to May 31, 2025.
Through the unwavering generosity of local merchants, individual sponsors, and our dedicated team of volunteers ensures that each year’s Healing Field® of Honor display and Memorial Day observance become a memorable and moving tribute. Community members have the opportunity to purchase a sponsorship or an individual flag honoring veterans who selflessly defended our American values and freedoms. Each flagpole can bear the name, rank, and branch of service of a veteran or loved one, with the option to include a special sentiment. After the Dedication of the Field of Honor on May 31, the flag and pole will be yours to take home and cherish.
We deeply value the flag for everything it represents: peace, security, liberty, family, friends, and home. As we honor it, we remember that it also embodies our responsibilities. Every glory connected to it reflects the duty fulfilled. The flag is a powerful emblem of everything we cherish: peace, security, liberty, family, friends, and home. As we gaze upon it, reflecting our rights, we must also recognize it as a symbol of our duties. Every honor associated with the flag is rooted in the commitment of those who served. The American Legion Honor Guard and Color Guard pay heartfelt tribute to veterans at ceremonies and funerals throughout our community. Through raffles of hams, roasts, and turkeys, along with the sale of the finest lobster rolls on the South Shore, we raise funds to support our causes and scholarships. The Healing Field® of Honor stands as our premier fundraiser, with all proceeds benefiting local veterans and the greater community.
This inspiring event is free to the public—don’t miss it!
May God bless America and all those who served and returned home, especially the young men and women from Cohasset who made the ultimate sacrifice.
