On Sunday, the transportation of thousands of wreaths made at Worcester Wreath Co. begins in Harrington with stops in many locations in Maine and other states along the route to Arlington National Cemetery.

Worcester Wreath Co. donated more than 17,000 wreaths for the remembrances, 10,000 of which will be placed on graves in Arlington National Cemetery Dec. 13.

The 10,000 wreaths designated for Arlington will be transported on a 750-mile journey from Harrington after a sendoff ceremony on Dec. 7.

Along the way, thousands of people line the anticipated route in a display of support. Six to seven hundred motorcyclists from the Patriot Guard Riders will provide an escort.

My "sweetheart" is buried at Arlington, waiting for me. I hope they put a wreath on her grave.
