Wild Thing's comment........
This is so moving and very special. I love things like this and how they honored Sherman Jones. America is the greatest country and people like this are the reason why. These students know what our freedom cost and is costing even today. It is a part of who they are and that is something that NO one can take away.
God bless Sherman Jones, all these students and their teachers.
.....Thank you Tom for sending this to me.

Awesome, just awesome. Thank you both, Tom and WT for posting this. What a touching tribute to Sherman. If you know a WWII or Korean vet learn all you can from them, they are passing fast. Thanks Sherman Jones

Jack they are passing fast.
Where we live there are a lot of Veterans and several I have met from WW1. What an honor it was to meet them.
