“Operation Green Light” is a way to show visible support and gratitude for the men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces. From November 4th through November 11th, the Atlantic Rock Island Society Enterprise (ARISE) will be lighting up the Atlantic American Legion Memorial Building in green to show support.
That’s ARISE member Mark McNees who is encouraging everyone to participate.
Local veteran leader Leonard Kinney says it means a lot to have people recognize a veteran’s service.
A number of schools, organizations and businesses have plans to salute those who have served as Veteran’s Day approaches. Operation Green Light is an easy way for residents to send a message of support to veterans.
