On Feb. 26, more than a dozen members of Sebastian Elks Lodge #2714 were at Riverview Park in Sebastian, Florida, for the unveiling of the Prisoner of War/Missing in Action monument. The lodge donated $500 to the Sebastian Squad 189 of Sons of the American Legion for the monument. The brass stars on the monument are made from the grommets of American flags retrieved after they were retired, therefore showing that the flag never dies. Since World War II, more than 82,000 Americans are still unaccounted for from wars and conflicts.
