The Honor Roll Project - South Ozone Park/Jamaica, NY

 As part of Heather Wilkinson Rojo's Honor Roll Project, I have transcribed this Roll of Honor at Aqueduct Racetrack in Queens County, NY to make the names visible to search engines so that family researchers can find them.


Donald and I stumbled on this roll of honor when we were at Aqueduct Racetrack back in the spring to get our vaccines.

The plaque says that this honor roll is in memory of departed comrades from the Robert F. Mangel Memorial Post 1781 of the American Legion. I was not able to find this post on the American Legion website, so I don't know how this roll of honor came to be at the racetrack, but I am very glad that we noticed it so that I could share these names.
