Several Memorial Day services planned across the FM Metro

(Fargo, ND) -- Several activities are planned for the upcoming Memorial Day weekend to honor veterans who died in the line of duty.

Jason Hicks with United Patriotic Bodies spoke to us about the upcoming events on The Flag's What's on Your Mind. Activities across the metro will take place to honor veterans who died while serving the United States.

"We cover every cemetery in the Fargo Moorhead area and beyond. Everyone has a short program and ceremony; and at a minimum we do the Rifle Volley, TAPS, and a short prayer," said Hicks. "Other places will have a full blown service with guest speakers, music, things like that."
