    Porter-Gaud Dedicates the New "Freedom Flagpole" to Honor Veterans (VIDEO)

    Porter-Gaud recently dedicated the new "Freedom Flagpole" at Singleton Field to honor the members of the Porter-Gaud Family who have served, are serving, or will serve in the United States Armed Forces. The project was a group effort between the Porter-Gaud Fathers Association, The Porter-Gaud Alumni Association, the Porter Military Academy Alumni Association, and Porter-Gaud School. The service was officiated by Chaplain Brian McGreevy, and Head of School DuBose Egleston, Director of Facilities Al Trivette, USAF (ret.), and Military Chaplain CAPT David Butler offered remarks about the importance of honoring the Veterans. The service was a wonderful reminder of the sacrifices our veterans make to protect the many freedoms we enjoy. A video of the event has been provided below for those who were unable to attend.
