Idaho to pay tribute to fallen soldiers at 9/11 ceremony today

Idaho’s official state 9/11 ceremony is set for 10 a.m. today at the Idaho Fallen Soldier Memorial, which is in front of the Capitol Annex, formerly the old Ada County Courthouse across the street from the state Capitol. Gov. Butch Otter and Lt. Gov. Brad Little, along with the U.S. Navy’s vice chief of operations, Admiral Michelle Howard, will lead a solemn ceremony memorializing the 67 Idahoans who have died in military service since Sept. 11, 2001. Other observances also are planned throughout the valley.
