A Time To Honor Often Forgotten Indian Scouts. Snap Shot Sunday

Honor the Indian Scouts at the Indian Scout Cemetery, west of Garrison, North Dakota

May is Military Appreciation Month, and Memorial Day is a time to remember and honor people who have died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. The Old Scout Cemetery is a place where many are buried who served our country.   It is a place not known by many, but of extremely high significance.   Read about this in Monday’s upcoming blogpost about the Old Scout Cemetery and the Old Scout Society.  

Peace where they lay at the Old Scout Cemetery, near White Shield, North Dakota.
