Service honored in Veterans Day assembly
November 10, 2015
The mood was a somber one in the Veterans Day assembly. Though the day is a celebration of those who served their country, students also remembered those who had laid everything on the line and lost it all.
Don Shoemake, a substitute teacher in the Wenatchee School District and an U.S. Air Force veteran, spoke to the assembled students about his experiences in the military during the Vietnam War.
The assembly also included a musical performance from the Hi-Tones and a duet performed by Lili Italiane and Anna Fleming.
