Coast Guard Air Station Port Angeles will host its annual Veterans Day ceremony sponsored by the Clallam County Veterans Association celebration.

Air Station Port Angeles has been designated as a regional Veterans Day observance site for the 24th year by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. The event will include patriotic music from several choirs and bands and a keynote address from Rear Admiral Charles Fosse, Commander of USCG District Thirteen.

The public is welcome to attend and can enter the facility from the front gate at 1 Ediz Hook starting at 9:45 AM. Due to enhanced security requirements, please plan to arrive early and expect delays at the gate. All guests must arrive via vehicle (no walk-ons will be permitted) and are required to present a valid government issued form of identification in order to gain access to the base. Weapons will not be permitted on the base. The ceremony will be conducted inside the air station hangar, however the hangar doors will be open for the duration of the ceremony. Please dress accordingly as the inside air temperature will reflect the outdoor air temperatures. All guests are invited to remain after the ceremony for complementary refreshments provided by the Clallam County Veteran’s Association.
