🇺🇸 Community Flag Retrieval at Kentucky Veterans Cemetery Central 🇺🇸

On behalf of the staff at Kentucky Veterans Cemetery Central (KVCC), we would like to thank everyone who helped place flags on the gravesites of our Veterans for Memorial Day. Your support helped us honor the 8,764 Veterans and 2,523 dependents laid to rest at our cemetery.

We are now asking for the community's assistance one final time as we respectfully retrieve the flags following the Memorial Day observance.

📅 Friday, June 5, 2026
🕙 10:00 AM
📍 Kentucky Veterans Cemetery Central
2501 North Dixie Boulevard, Radcliff, KY

Volunteers should meet at the Administration Building for a brief overview before being assigned sections throughout the cemetery.

All ages are welcome to participate! We encourage families to join us, and children are especially welcome. This is a meaningful opportunity to teach younger generations about service, sacrifice, and the importance of honoring those who defended our nation.

This is a wonderful opportunity to continue honoring those who served while helping preserve the dignity and appearance of the cemetery. Whether you placed flags or are joining us for the first time, your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Together, we ensure that the sacrifices of our Veterans are never forgotten.

Commissaries Will Begin Charging for Bags in April

Commissaries Will Begin Charging for Bags in April

Commissary shoppers will begin paying for single-use bags April 6 at most locations, a change that reportedly will save the Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) $17 million a year.

Shoppers will pay 5 cents per plastic bag and 10 cents per paper bag whether they are shopping in person or using pickup or delivery services. Those with pickup orders can avoid the surcharge by bringing their own bags, an option that will be available at the end of the CLICK2GO ordering process.

Reusable bags will be available for purchase at all locations. The change won’t affect shoppers in California, Guam, Hawaii, or Washington state, where single-use bags are not available.

The new fee also will not affect the commissary bagger process, where self-employed baggers working for tips provide bagging services.

The charge will allow DeCA “to continue to offer its eligible patrons significant savings while strengthening its fiscal stewardship and reducing operating expenses,” the agency said in a press release announcing the change.

Other recent commissary policy changes include an extension through 2026 of a pilot program allowing Department of War civilian employees to shop at 19 commissary locations, and an expansion of commissary delivery availability to 70 stores nationwide.

Never Stop Serving.
