Overview

Brandon Salutes will act as a vehicle to continually grow the connection between our areas' different communities. The committee's efforts will be based on a long-term strategy that will connect our communities for years to come.

Brandon Salutes will be successful if we continue to raise awareness amongst and engage many different people from our community groups. Brandon Salutes will continue as an organization as long as there is a military presence in our area. Its shape and form may change, but its presence will be everlasting.

We ask that you join us in our mission to bond our communities together for the betterment of all concerned! Help us strengthen the relationship that already exists between the military and civilian members of our community.

We look forward to engaging the community in identifying additional ideas and opportunities for further connecting our communities.

"The Salute"

The salute is as old as history itself and is at once a greeting and a mark of respect. It is also a mark of trust and confidence, an act of courtesy and good manners. It is a mark of loyalty. Salutes are accorded in different ways, each with a long tradition of its own, but the symbolism, the feeling or message conveyed, remains constant.
