A rolling tribute to America's heroes who paid the ultimate sacrifice visited White Plains.
Employees of PepsiCo North America Beverages joined family members of those who died while serving the country at a special ceremony.
The Rolling Remembrance campaign helps children of America's fallen patriots.
Organizers say more than 97 percent of those killed in military action are men, who leave their wives and children behind.
PepsiCo promoted the program with an accompanying fundraising campaign to benefit the Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation, which offers college scholarships to those children as a way of saying thank you.
  
Last year, the campaign raised over $100,000 in scholarship money.
