Pay your respects at the Field of Flags
Annually in early November Fort William Henry Museum places a field of over 9,000 flags on the west lawn near the fort. Each flag placed is marked with the name of active duty or veterans according to the time period served and the branch of service. Please stop by anytime to honor the memory of all who have served our country in all wars.
A musket salute will be held on November 11th at 10:30 am.
The public is invited to contact the Fort and share the names of their service woman or man to be added to the field.
Want to add a family member’s name to the ceremony? Please send First and Last name, rank, military branch, and period of service to museum@fortwilliamhenry.com
