Rolling Thunder® Indiana Chapter 6, in cooperation with Bosse Field, will hold a dedication ceremony for a Chair of Honor at Bosse Field on Saturday, August 15, 2015 at 6:00p. The ceremony will precede the Evansville Otters baseball game scheduled to begin at 6:35p.
The Rolling Thunder ®, Inc. POW/MIA Chair of Honor Program supports our organization’s main mission, by serving as a daily reminder to Americans of the POW/MIA issue. Every Chair of Honor is a somber reminder of the over 91,000 service members who are POW/MIA since World War I, and a promise to every POW/MIA and their families, they are not forgotten.
A POW/MIA chair will remain perpetually empty to remind people even though our soldiers are not here, there is still a space for them. The seat will remain cordoned off to prevent use and will be accompanied by a memorial plaque.
This will be the second Chair of Honor dedicated in Indiana; the first was installed at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
