Any nation that does not honor its heroes will not long endure.”
Abraham Lincoln

November 13th at the Seadrift School gym was just that… honoring our heroes! Many people came to experience a very special program put on by the Seadrift School to honor our veterans. Many an area veteran was recognized as well as the different branches of service in the presentation of the military flags. Patriotic songs were performed by the students. There was the POW and MIA table to help us remember that they are not forgotten. Pledges to our flags were given. A Veterans Prayer Poem was read. A speech was given by the Assistant School Principal Fjola Reger. The program was enjoyed by veterans and community alike.

For over 23 years the Seadrift School has been honoring our area veterans. Any time a veteran is honored any or all their families are honored as well.

We salute the Seadrift School staff and students who worked to make these programs possible.
God bless the USA!
