Open Mic Two
This Veterans Day, November 11, 2008, is special because we currently have troops in harms way in a foreign country. I am a veteran of the Viet Nam war and I remember the lonely feeling of being away from home and love ones especially during the holidays. Please take time tomorrow to remember and recognize our men and women who unselfishly serve our country in time of conflict. In our small way, Sprayberry High School will honor the veterans on November 11, by having a flag raising ceremony in front of the school at 0800. After the raising of the flag and during morning announcements each teacher who is a veteran will have their names and the branch of service announced on live TV to the entire school.
Hi, Mark - I agree that Veteran's Day is one of our most heartfelt days of the year. Thank you for your service.
ReplyDeleteHi Mark,
ReplyDeleteI responded to Joe as well. My father is a WWII veteran and my husband is a Vietnam veteran. I feel like I am with hallowed company. Thank you for serving us! Dr. J.
