TEMECULA, CA — If you drive near the Temecula Duckpond, you'll see a row of American flags waving along the fence line. This is not in honor of Election Day on Nov. 3, but rather the return of the city's Flags of Honor Veterans Day program.

The flags will be displayed from Nov. 2 through the 16th.

Who do these flags represent? Veterans Day honorees include active-duty military personnel and retired veterans who have faithfully served our nation.
