The Seaford Wellness Council spearheaded the installation of its annual Field of Honor in front of the Seaford train station on Nov. 7. It consists of dozens of American flags, which are placed there for most of November to coincide with Veterans Day.

Volunteers from the Wellness Council and American Legion Post No. 1132 spent the morning installing the flags on the lawn between the station and Sunrise Highway.
