ND Honor Guard representative gives update on Fargo National Cemetery construction project

(Fargo, ND) -- A representative with the Fargo Memorial Honor Guard is sharing concerns regarding the Fargo National Cemetery.

Fargo Memorial Honor Guard spokesperson Tom Krabbenhoft joined WDAY Radio's The Coffee Club to speak about his concerns regarding a lack of inclusion on official discussions with the Veterans Affairs.  Krabbenhoft says other agencies are trying to force the Fargo Memorial Honor guard to step down, a step which Krabbenhoft claims is beyond the VA's authority.

"This is midlevel bureaucrats that are overstepping our bounds, "said Krabbenhoft, "We're stand alone, 501c organization, we are not taking any money from any federal entity [or] from the state, and we have state officials and federal officials that are putting the flex on us."

Overall, Krabbenhoft says the Fargo Memorial Honor Guard is "disappointed" with how they are being treated by other organizations. You can learn more about the disagreement between The Fargo Memorial Honor Guard and the VA by clicking here.
