Outside, Sergeant-at-Arms Jerry Brearton presented the ceremonial United States Flag to Nancy Usterbowski, widow of Dale Usterbowski. Dale was Commander of American Legion Post 328 for eight years.
The Honor Guard stood at “Present Arms” formation during the flag presentation, waiting to fire Three Volleys as a salute to Dale. That was followed by the playing of “Taps” by Carolyn Aiken.
