The Warren Fire Department took to social media Saturday afternoon to highlight National Purple Heart Day. National Purple Heart Day is on Aug 7 every year for Americans to remember and honor the men and women who were killed or wounded while serving their country. “Our firefighters salute all men and women who have received this decoration, especially those who are residents in our patriotic community,” read in a Facebook post. The Coventry Police Department also took to their Facebook page to celebrate the holiday.
