SPOKANE, Wash. – During Memorial Day weekend, the Washington State Fallen Heroes Project held its annual Boots on the Ground tribute outside Spokane’s Veteran Memorial Arena.
The tribute features boots that were worn by fallen soldiers, each containing an American flag and a picture of the soldier.
These boots sit along the Illuminating Courage statue, which honors service members from Washington and North Idaho.
A flag change ceremony took place near the statue Saturday evening. The display will be available for viewing through tomorrow.
