Six World War II veterans were honored with plaques, speeches, music from the 1940s and salutes from local citizens during a ceremony Saturday in Carlsbad.
The ceremony at the Eddy County Courthouse lawn gazebo was part of a two-day Independence Day celebration in Carlsbad.
“We were also given the names of more WW II veterans who aren’t able to join us today. We honor these men,” said Mayor Dale Janway during a speech.
“We use the term ‘The Greatest Generation’ to describe the men and women who served during WW II. It is certainly an accurate statement,” he added.
$80K donated by NWP, Amentum to Carlsbad organizations
Nuclear Waste Partnership (NWP) and its parent company Amentum announced $80,000 in donations to schools and community organizations in Carlsbad and Hobbs.
On May 12, Carlsbad MainStreet, Keep Carlsbad Beautiful and Creative Carlsbad accepted a donation of $20,000 to Carlsbad MainStreet. The funds are designated to help refurbish and beautify the downtown area around the Eddy County Courthouse through the addition of new benches and trashcans.
“Carlsbad MainStreet, Pearl of the Pecos, and Keep Carlsbad Beautiful strive to improve our community and districts in every way possible. This downtown rejuvenation project is the perfect example of that. Through collaboration between all of our organizations and the generous support of the Nuclear Waste Partnership and Amentum, we will have the opportunity to start the first phase of our beautification project,” said Ashley Key, Carlsbad MainStreet’s director.
