Onondaga County Veterans Memorial Cemetery prepares for its Memorial Day ceremony with more than 6,500 flags and a roll call of the dead
Sunday morning at the cemetery on Howlett Hill Road in Syracuse, the county will mark 39 years of public ceremony at a 52-acre burial ground that has carried more than 5,000 veterans into the earth since 1986. The program is free, the parking is tight, and the rule, set by the people who run it, is to say each name aloud as a flag goes into the ground.
