Members of the CAP, the South Daytona Community Emergency Response Team and other volunteers then laid wreaths on the graves of veterans at the cemetery.

"The Ormond Beach Composite Squadron is profoundly honored to lead this effort at the Daytona Memorial Park, which they believe hosts the largest number of fallen veterans in Volusia County," Ormond Beach Airport Manager Steven Lichliter said in the email, on behalf of CAP.
