Future leaders turn to the past as a way to achieve a high honor. Two Chicago-area Eagle Scout candidates chose projects which remember veterans who are no longer with us. The two scouts have worked out of two different cemeteries and to help honor war veterans of years’ past. Walk inside Saint Charles North Cemetery and you’ll find 150 Civil War headstones. They’re not hard to spot. Most are askew and darkened from decades of neglect.

CHICAGO (WGN) — A small band of Chicago veterans believed it was never too late to welcome home American soldiers from Vietnam. Little did they know, the project would affect thousands of veterans. In 1986, Navy Pier served a much different purpose than it does today. It was the starting off point for a parade to honor Vietnam veterans and it would become known as the largest parade of its kind in the nation. It was held on June 13, 1986.
