SANATOGA PA – The colors were raised and then lowered to half mast, a bag-piper played, and members of Sanatoga-based Brig. Gen. Elmer S. Friedberg American Legion Post 244 conducted a salute May 15 (2010; Saturday) during Peace Officers Memorial Day services on behalf of the North Coventry (PA) Police Department at the flag pole of the Coventry Mall, Routes 100 and 724, Pottstown PA.

The post’s firing squad fired three volleys, and was followed by its bugler playing taps. A musician of the Chester County Emerald Society Pipe Band played a tribute that included “Amazing Grace.”

Honoring the fallen with three volleys.
