The UAW Local 2069 Veterans Committee presents the 32nd Annual Memorial Day Ceremony and Ride for Freedom Memorial Ceremony / Run to the Wall on Saturday, May 24, 2025 on the front lawn of the UAW Local 2069 Union Hall.
The ceremony will include the raising of the flag and special keynote speaker United States Army Veteran, Michael Henshaw. In addition to Mr. Henshaw, we will have the VFW Honor Guard, the Virginia State Police bagpiper, music, and more to honor and remember our service members who gave their all.
Mr. Henshaw’s distinguished career spans military service, government leadership, and private enterprise. A 25-year Veteran of the US Army, his service included extensive work recovering the remains of missing service members from numerous conflicts, including WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and the Gulf Wars. This experience led to his expertise in international mass fatality management, evident in his leadership roles following the 2004 South Asia Tsunami, 2010 Haiti Earthquake, and 2019 Hurricane Dorian.
Following the Flag Raising Ceremony, there will be a motorcycle ride to Washington, D.C. to join with AmVets in the Rolling to Remember motorcycle demonstration ride in our nation’s capital to raise awareness of the critical issues facing our nation’s Veterans.
Admission is free and all are welcome.
The UAW Local 2069 Union Hall is located at 5110 Cougar Trail Road in Dublin, VA.
