Penn State will host its annual Prisoners of War/Missing in Action (POW/MIA) Vigil from 5 to 6 p.m. Sept. 16. This event will take place on the Old Main Lawn on the University Park campus and is open to the public. Military veterans and those with family members serving in the U.S. armed forces are invited to attend. This event is in honor of POW/MIA Recognition Day, which also takes place on the same day. This nationally recognized holiday was created to remind Americans to honor those who have served and those who never had the chance to return home. Learn more here.
