Healing Fields of Honor For the fifth year the Quincy Exchange Club will present a dramatic Field of Honor® flag display this Veterans’ Day. A beautiful panorama of red, white and blue will greet visitors at Quincy’s Field of Honor® Flag Display which will take place this coming November 9th through the 12th.

Walking amid this dramatic formation of U.S. flags will offer visitors a stirring vista that will create a lasting memory as we honor our veterans, and at the conclusion of the display the flags will be used in the Flags of Honor neighborhood flag display program.

All are invited to visit the Field of Honor® display and to support the Quincy Exchange Club in presenting an event that will draw area residents together honoring those who have served us to protect our freedom.
