SGA honors Veterans Day by planting flags for fallen soldiers

The Student Government Association placed flags in front of the school for Veterans Day, in rememberance of soldiers who lost their lives.
Veterans Day is an annual U.S. holiday which fell on Nov. 12 this year, to honor those that served in the armed forces.
“The flags show we are a community that supports our veterans,” senior Corynn Farrand said.
Vietnam War veteran and Marshall grandparent Thomas Norwood said rememberance of those who lost their lives is important.
“I feel young people [should] understand the importance of Veterans Day,” Norwood said. “It is not just an excuse to skip school, and as a Vietnam vet myself [I] feel honored to have served my country and brought pride to my family.”
