On Monday July 4th members of the Division 12 Color Guard combined with active duty members of the Station Pt. Allerton Color Guard for a combined Team Coast Guard colors presentation at the annual Time Capsule Cairn Monument Inspection Ceremony.
The Division 12 Color Guard has made this event an annual tradition and has been invited to attend for the last eight years. This is the third joint presentation with members from Station Pt. Allerton this year. Each year the ceremony celebrates the holiday with a remembrance of Braintree's connection to the Declaration of Independence. Two of its original signers, John Hancock and John Adams were both born in Braintree.
The ceremony was recorded by BCAM-TV and will be replayed many times in the future. The Division 12 Color Guard looks forward to continuing this tradition
each year with the Town of Braintree. The Division 12 Color Guard continues on with a busy 4th of July weekend at it completed a rehearsal presentation on evening of July 3rd at the Pops 4th of July Concert and will be presenting colors in prime time for the July 4th Concert at the Esplanade.
