As the year draws to a close, we look back on our most liked photos of 2015.
Without any words, a photo can tell a story. We aim to share photos on our Instagram feed that capture the faces, places and events that tell our Veterans’ personal stories. Our favorite posts from this year tell stories about honoring Veterans across the country on Veterans Day, the laying of wreaths on Veterans’ cemeteries for Wreaths Across America and commemorating the 70th Anniversary of the end of World War II.
Check out the top Instagram photos from this year and follow along at @deptvetaffairs.
