96th Annual Captain Emilio Carranza Memorial SATURDAY, JULY 8, 2023 AT 10 PM For over nine decades, American Legion Department of New Jersey, Mount Holly Post 11 has continued to honor a pioneer of early aviation. Captain Emilio Carranza flew a mission of Goodwill to the United States, a return gesture of Charles Lindbergh's flight to Mexico City. Some may say that like his flight, his mission had not been completed.
