This year’s mural depicts World War II – three scenes, ships attacking in the blue sea, airplanes flying in the sky, and tanks on the ground in red, overlayed with an image of the famous image of the flag raising on Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima.

All are welcome to gather at the American Legion Post 372, 1532 Martin Ave, Cherry Hill, NJ on Saturday, August 24th at 1pm to view Davidson’s depiction of our veterans from WWII and learn about her inspiration for the mural.
