I was absolutely appalled to hear this morning that Dave Pharoah, the commander of the Sag Harbor American Legion, was informed that he would have to pay a fee to obtain a permit for the Memorial Day parade.
As a proud member of the Chelberg & Battle family, a member of the auxiliary, the daughter of parents who served overseas in World War II, and a patriotic American, I am disgusted that the village would disrespect our organization and the brave men and women who have served our country, past and present.
I think the community should be aware of this.
