Members of the Humboldt branch of the Royal Canadian Legion gathered near the Legion section of the public cemetery in Humboldt on June 5 for annual Decoration Day ceremony. After a short service which recognized the 100th anniversary of the Royal Canadian Postal Corps, members put Canadian flags on the graves of all those buried in the Legion section, and on the graves of veterans buried outside that section at both the public and Catholic cemeteries.
