Doyle Memorial Cemetery Honor Guard, waits to place an American flag in front of it during the 26th New Jersey Mission of Honor ceremony at the Cemetery at North Hanover Township, N.J., Nov. 30, 2017. The cremains of one World War I veteran – John J. Aron, seven World War II veterans – Leslie H. Allen, Louis J. Bakelaar, Gilbert C. Johnson, Theodore Martin, Robert W. Milner, James K. Molony, and Edith L. Sherwood, and one Vietnam veteran, Bruce King, were honored during the ceremony. NJMOH’S mission is to identify, retrieve, and intern the cremated remains of veterans forgotten in New Jersey funeral homes. Since 2007, 528 veterans have been located due to their efforts. Of those, more than 306 cremains have been reunited with their families. (New Jersey Department of Military and Veterans Affairs photo by Mark C. Olsen)
