Lincoln Brigade Memorial Project

This Memorial Day the Abraham Lincoln Brigade Archives suggests that one way to honor
veterans is by taking part in the Lincoln Brigade Memorial Project, which remembers those who died fighting fascism in Spain. “You can do this by visiting their graves, collecting GPS coordinates, taking a photo, and leaving mementos such as flags, flowers, a penny, or any other remembrance you choose.” Share the photos and any information you collect with ALBA at info@alba-valb.org or visit the ALB Tribute website on Facebook.
