Hundreds attended a Memorial Day ceremony at Glen Island Park in New Rochelle to honor those who gave their lives to fight for our freedom.
Families waved their American flags, saluting the Marines who were brought to the city during Fleet Week so that they can be shown appreciation.
World War II veteran Stew Lahey says that Memorial Day is not only about remembering the lives lost, but also about looking to the future generation.
"We need a military to protect this country," he says.
