Delaware Army National Guard Color Guard fires a volley

description

Summary

Delaware Army National Guard Color Guard fires a volley salute during the Wreaths Across America (WAA) event in Dover, Del., Dec. 9, 2019. During the Dover WAA event, many local and military leaders spoke before joining children from a local elementary school to place wreaths at each of the memorials located around Legislative Mall. The annual WAA event is held at more than 1,600 locations, where volunteers lay wreaths at memorials and cemeteries in honor of those who served. The wreaths are symbolic: the evergreens represent longevity and endurance, the red bow represents great sacrifice, and the circular shape represents eternity.

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
