State Rep. Harold Naughton addressed residents at Beaumont and Whitney Place at Northborough, where a special flag was raised in honor of July 4th. More than 50 Whitney Place and Beaumont Residents gathered, including many veterans who were acknowledged individually during the event.
The flag had previously flown over Camp Phoenix Kabul, Afghanistan, on the tenth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, and was, as stated on the accompanying certificate signed by Brigadier General John Hammond “in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, while continuing our effort to protect the population, connect the people to the government and affect sustainable development to protect and improve the lives of the Afghan population.”
SALMON Health and Retirement is privileged to have received this unique honor and to have the opportunity to share the flag with their residents and clients on their Northborough campus, and on their other campuses in Natick, Northborough, Northbridge and Worcester in future.
