GROTTOES, Va. - The town now runs the program, and this year, the town of Grottoes put on its fifth official Veterans’ Day program in the Town Hall. It included performances by local kids, speeches by veterans and an appearance from U.S. Rep. Ben Cline (R-6th).

Cline also spoke briefly during the event, thanking the veterans present for their service.

“You’re a living testament to the truth that freedom isn’t free,” Cline said. “Your sacrifices, whether made on distant battlefields or at home, speak volumes about your courage, dedication and unwavering commitment to defending the Constitution.”

The program ended with a roll call and audience applause for veterans who served in different conflicts, from Korea to Vietnam to Afghanistan.
