VETERANS DAY

As written in the paper: "As many of you may know, Veterans' Day was on Tuesday, November 11. Beaver High had the opportunity to host a Veterans' Day assembly. To start off Veterans' Day, the student body gathered in the South parking lot for a flag raising ceremony. A group of six National Guard soldiers slowly raised the flag, then lowered it to half mast to honor the lives lost in American wars. With hands over their hearts, the students listened to Taps and watched the flag fly over their heads. A group of American Legion Veterans fired shots closing the flag raising ceremony." Grandpa is directly in the middle.
