COVID-19 may have parred down Veterans Day events in Mineral County, but members from the Ray Welch American Legion Post 13 in St. Regis gathered to observe the day and share fellowship for several reasons. Veterans and their families enjoyed a barbecue dinner, and also took the time to honor U.S. Marine John Cochran (white utility cover cap) with a bronze plaque in recognition of his donation of the land that gave the Legion Post a permanent home. The 48-star flag that hangs on the wall belongs to John Cochran, his mother sent it to him while he was stationed on Yellow Island in 1952. (Amy Quinlivan/Mineral Independent)
