                      • Description: 1959 photo of a ceremony at Battery Park, very likely at the veterans memorial dedicated to Howard W. Plant. C. Douglas Cairns, Mayor of Burlington (perhaps former mayor by this date) is standing at a microphone, addressing the crowd.

A number of onlookers from the neighborhood, plus other veterans, have gathered for the occasion.
