A fireworks display will accompany the National Ethnic Coalition of Organizations' Ellis Island Medals of Honor Ceremony tonight. The fireworks will be displayed in New York Harbor--east of Liberty Island--beginning at approximately 11:30. If tonight's weather is inclement, the display will be rescheduled for tomorrow night at 11:30.
The Medals of Honor are presented annually to "American citizens who have distinguished themselves within their own ethnic groups while exemplifying the values of the American way of life."
