May 23, 2022 Regular Meeting

Editor,

This is our Bluffton American Legion Post 382 response to the June 3, 2022, Iconoclast View:

This year we asked a Veteran to speak and verbally gave him our guidelines. Some may agree with his ideas, and some may disagree. Either way the speech was not appropriate for Memorial Day. Memorial Day is to honor our fallen comrades. We will in the future give written guidelines so this does not happen again. We have had excellent speakers and will continue to strive in the future to honor the fallen on Memorial Day.
