TRIBUTE TO THE AMERICAN SOLDIER
A salute to the American soldier from the French & Indian War to the present day, this event will
bring American Military History alive and honor those who have served. At a time when the world
seems constantly changing and volatile, the American soldier continues to protect and serve, just
as they have for over 200 years. This presentation by the Marlboro Volunteers includes a Military
Museum and a Medical Triage Museum featuring weapons, uniforms, and vehicles. Citizen and
veteran volunteers provide educational presentations for all ages. Patriotic music by the Toronto
Community Band and others.
