The Normandy Beach neighborhood, split between Brick and Toms River townships, held its annual Independence Day flag rising ceremony Tuesday.
The ceremony included flags flying proudly from local fire trucks, a parade of veterans from each military branch, a flyover by the Ocean Black Sheep air support squadron, as well as an appearance by Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno, who spoke of her own son potentially going to war.
