Talk about it

PIERRE (AP) — Banners created to honor South Dakota military personnel who lost their lives in Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom will be on display starting Monday at the South Dakota National Guard Museum in Pierre.

Museum manager Bob Kusser tells the media that having the display at the National Guard Museum allows visitors to Pierre to see both the Capitol Christmas tree and the Fallen Heroes banners.

There is no charge to tour the South Dakota National Guard Museum. The banners will be on display through Dec. 22. The museum is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
