Members of the Patriot Guard Riders form a line of flags during a ceremony in the Uncas Ballroom at Mohegan Sun as one of two local stops for the Wreaths Across America convoy Tuesday, December 9, 2014. The convoy also stopped in Old Saybrook en route to Arlington National Cemetery from Harrington, Maine, with approximately 150,000 wreaths to adorn the graves at the cemetery.
During the ceremony, Wayne Hanson of WAA presented Mohegan Tribal Chairman Kevin Brown with a wreath which the tribe will place at the Bunker Hill Monument in memory of a tribal member who died in the Battle of Bunker Hill in 1775.
