On Sunday, Nov. 11, a ceremony held at the VFW in Owego marked the 100th year since the signing of the Armistice that ended the First World War. There was a display set up to highlight the 100 years, as well as representation from veterans from all branches of the armed forces.

Eagle Scout Ryan Trenchard received recognition during the ceremony, as well as several veterans of Modern Warfare and Gerald Keene of Waverly, who was recognized for his continued service to veterans.

Here are some photos from the event. We will have more on this ceremony in the next print edition of the Owego Pennysaver Press.
