Jacksonville, FL — Making sure their sacrifice is not forgotten.

The Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp baseball team is making a few changes at the baseball grounds to honor prisoners of war and those missing in action.

During Monday's Labor Day game, the team dedicated a 'Chair of Honor' for POW-MIA that will remain unoccupied to symbolize that there will always be a place in the stadium awaiting their return.
