Capt. Walter Hotch-Hill, 1st Battalion, 297th Infantry Regiment, Alaska Army National Guard, along with members of the Alaska Organized Militia including the Alaska Air and Army National Guard and Alaska State Defense Force, join veterans, community members and people from across the state and nation to participate in a Veterans Totem Pole raising ceremony in the city of Klawock on Prince of Wales Island, Aug. 18, 2018. The 37-foot Veterans Totem Pole was placed in Klawock’s newly constructed Veterans Totem Park to honor all Alaska veterans. In addition to helping carry the totem pole and provide a color guard, two Alaska Army National Guard High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles were used to lead and trail the procession of the totem pole from the local carvers shed to its final position against the shoreline of the Klawock Inlet.
