Benjamin American Legion Post 791 joined students in a packed gymnasium for a ceremony that also featured music by the school’s wind ensemble on Friday.The partnership between the American Legion Post goes back at least 30 years, Post Commander Tom Kittler said during his speech. The COVID-19 pandemic moved the event away from the school in 2020 and 2021, however.
