    Elected officials, key leaders from the Texas Military Department, and over 1,000 volunteers gathered together on November 13, 2021, during an event at the San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site, to honor all Texans who have given their lives in armed conflict from the Revolution through Afghanistan. Beginning at 6 a.m. that morning, more than 1,000 volunteers placed and lit 21,500 luminaries, made of paper bags filled with sand and a candle, on the battleground site, representing the 21,500 veterans that have lost their lives.
