Drivers cresting the hill on Cathedral Road in Rindge are greeted with a sea of small American flags at the entrance to Cathedral of the Pines. Each of the 660 flags represents one of the 660 veterans on average who die by suicide each month.
The display, called “Flags for Forgotten Heroes,” was installed on Saturday, and will stay in place through Veterans’ Day.
Event organizer Bill Rohr, himself a Vietnam veteran, opened up to the gathered crowd Saturday about his own struggle with mental health, recalling a time when he had thoughts of self-harm, but was able to call a help line and take himself to the hospital.

A tattoo shop and connected apartments on Jaffrey’s Main Street were evacuated Tuesday night, when a pillar outside the historic building went up in flames.
Fire Chief David Chamberlain said at the scene that the fire started in leaf debris under the porch, and traveled up the pillar. He said the likely cause of the fire is discarded smoking materials, such as a cigarette, but the cause has not been officially determined. Chamberlain said the fire may have been smoldering for a while before catching the pillar alight. Chamberlain said he does not consider the fire suspicious, and that it looked accidental.
