The tour honors the service and sacrifice of all who answer our nation’s call with an exhibit featuring eight large oil paintings by Ohio artist Anita Miller portraying 23 fallen men of Lima Company 325, a Marine Reserve Unit based in Columbus, Ohio. The unit deployed to the Middle East, and in the summer of 2005, gave the ultimate sacrifice during the Iraq War.

Frankfort Main Street kicks off the patriotic weekend with “Thursday Thunder,” a cruise-in car show on July 2 at Veterans Park in downtown Frankfort.
