Ocoee’s Veterans Day Ceremony

The city is honored to have Retired Marine Corps Maj. Barron Mills as our keynote speaker. Having grown up as the son of a career Army officer, and then serving in the Marine Corps himself for 20 years, Maj. Mills has been on five continents and to dozens of countries. His prior experiences include leading Marines on missions in the Mediterranean, Haiti, Cuba, Iraq and Afghanistan.  The Ocoee Middle School Wind Ensemble will play a medley of songs. The Ocoee Police Department and Fire Department Honor Guard will present the colors and carry a wreath to be set in place at the city’s Memorial Wall and an Ocoee High School Band member will play “Taps”. Refreshments will be served after the ceremony.
