“All gave some/Some gave all …” — Billy Ray Cyrus, “Some Gave All.”
Every year, The Moultrie Observer honors the servicemen of Colquitt County —past and present — by publishing their names in a special section on Veterans Day. We hope to add photographs to this year’s section — with your help.
For $15, we’ll include a 1-column photo, approximately 3 inches deep, of your veteran in the Nov. 11 veterans section, plus we’ll post it on our website, www.moultrieobserver.com.
Please bring your photo to The Observer at 25 N. Main St. in Moultrie. If possible, we will scan your photo while you wait.
You may also e-mail the photo to kevin.hall@gaflnews.com, but we cannot accept payment information by e-mail.
Please include the veteran’s name, his rank, his branch of service and his years of service. For instance: Sgt. Jivis Hall, U.S. Army, 1958-1966.
We cannot accept photos after Tuesday, Nov. 3.
If your serviceman’s name was not listed in last year’s edition, contact us to add it at no charge.
