On November 9, the Village of Islandia held its annual Veterans Day ceremony at the Village Memorial Triangle. Mayor Allan M. Dorman, a Vietnam veteran, was joined by local elected officials, war veterans and representatives from the Central Islip and Lakeland Fire Departments to honor those who served and continue to serve in the armed forces.
There was a musical performance by the Central Islip High School marching band and a presentation of the colors by local members of The United States Marine Corps. Village officials joined war veterans in placing a wreath and bouquets of roses in front of the memorial.
