The wreaths were donated by the Worchester Wreath Company which lays the wreaths at Arlington Cemetery and on the grave of the Unknown Soldier. Wreaths were laid at the Veterans Memorial at the same time as a wreath was laid at the grave of the Unknown Soldier. Pocatello was one of three cities chosen to participate in the wreath ceremony. It was held at the Southeast Idaho Veterans Memorial located at upper Ross Park.

Thank you so much for this article. This event brought our local vets to one place to be honored with those across the united states. It was sobering, and exciting to hold this in Pocatello. Thanks for your great photos and coverage.
