Veterans Day and Operation Green Light
As Veterans Day, Tuesday, Nov. 11, approaches, Montgomery County will once again join the national “Operation Green Light” initiative to honor those who have served. County Executive Marc Elrich and the County Council are mobilizing the community to honor our veterans through ceremonial tributes, a week-long visual salute, and a drive to expand the County's virtual tribute to its county Veterans. The program asks for displays of a green light, from November 4 through November 11, in a window of businesses or residences to honor veterans. From November 4 through November 11, Montgomery County’s Memorial Plaza, which is located adjacent to the County Executive Building at 101 Monroe Street in Rockville, will be lit with green lights. More information about Operation Green Light. View Veterans Day events being held across Montgomery County.
