The final piece of the Veterans Totem Pole is placed finalizing the completion of the pole raising ceremony in the city of Klawock on Prince of Wales Island, Aug. 18, 2018. People from across the state and country flocked to the three-day event to celebrate and participate in raising of the pole designed to honor Alaska’s veterans. The 37-foot totem is complete with service branches and Prisoners of War-Missing In Action insignias, a 1960s-era U.S. Army Soldier, ancient warrior holding a double-headed dagger, an eagle and raven at the top, and a set of identification tags that veterans can pin unit crests and insignia to in the bottom of the totem pole.
