What Do Coins Left on Idaho Military Graves Mean?


Last year, we were invited to be part of a car cruise honoring Idaho's fallen heroes. When we got to the Idaho State Veterans Cemetery one of the car club members pulled us aside to tell us more about a tradition we've always wondered about. 
Traditionally, the Idaho State Veterans Cemetery holds a very beautiful and powerful Memorial Day ceremony. In the past, it's included a wreath presentation, flyover, participation form members of the Army, Marine Corps, Navy and speakers from the Governor's Office. Unfortunately, for the second year in a row, they will forego a formal gathering due to the COVID-19 pandemic. They will, with the help of the Captain Art Jackson Young Marines and volunteers from Veterans Service Organizations, place a single United States Flag at each gravesite.
