Katonah's American Legion Has Guard for Veterans Day

A group from Katonah's local American Legion chapter held an honor guard Monday morning for Veterans Day.

Four members from Post 1575 stood at the James F. Lawrence Circle in downtown and faced outward to the streets, with colleagues watching.

Among those present was Tom Cieslinski, whose uncle was killed in World War II and who served in the Navy in a non-combat role. 

Discussing the tradition of the guard, Cieslinski said they try to “carry on year after year.”

Cieslinski described the camaraderie among special who have served as “something special.”
