Lieutenant Phair was honored to escort the team from Wreaths Across America - Official Page as they traveled through Oneida County earlier today.

Starting at NYS Thruway Exit 31, the convoy traveled to the Walmart Distribution Center, where the Wreaths were delivered, one of the Walmart Truck Drivers, Harold (pictured) a Military Veteran, presented Lieutenant Phair with a wreath.

After a short ceremony, at the Notre Dame Junior/Senior High School the convoy continued to NYS Thruway Exit 33 where the wreaths will travel to Pennsylvania with a final destination of the Arlington National Cemetery.
