OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT) - In 100 years, the Omaha National Cemetery will be the final resting place for as many as 112,000 veterans.
Pat Peterson, a proud Marine who served in Vietnam, died at the age of 70. That was two and a half years ago.
The family has been waiting for a spot at the National Cemetery and the COVID pandemic delayed it from taking place sooner. This tribute also carries the symbolism of a simple coin.
Pat Paterson found it during the war. He felt it gave him luck since it had the year he graduated from Holy Name in Omaha.
