These 16 white crosses in front of the American Legion Post 29 hut on West Claiborne Avenue honor the 15 Marines and one Navy corpsman killed in a plane crash last July. Lisa Corbet was joined Friday by local military supporters and former military to help set up the crosses before Memorial Day. From left are Johnny Favara, Ralph Petty, Ed Hill, Glenn Seefeld, Richard Avant, Dave Becker, Dale Persons, Michael Bland, Leflore County District 4 Supervisor Wayne Self, Corbet, U.S. Marine Staff Sgt. Matthew Tucker, Mayor Carolyn McAdams and Steven Hambrick.
