The Amboy American Legion held its Veterans Day program at Veterans Park on Saturday. It was a warm, sunny day for the event.  Pictured above, Commander Jack Mead dedicated the two new murals featured on the wall behind the park. The new murals are the work of local artist Loreen Mead, and are on the left and right side of Loreen’s original mural of a lone solider by a grave with the quote, “In war, there are no unwounded soldiers,” which debuted about two years ago. The mural on the left depicts the Dustoff Medevac Helicopter from Vietnam. The mural on the right depicts a scene from D-Day at Normandy during World War II on June 6, 1944.
