The Armed Service Salute (TASS) is a celebration of Michigan's veterans, active military, civilian community support, and the authentic patriotism inspired by that collaboration. TASS consists of three events on one day of continuous patriotic Veterans Day observance. Events like these help to further solidarity between the military and the public.
