We have our annual Salute to Veterans in this week’s edition.
You’ll find photos of veterans from our area on Pages 1D-8D.
Please open that section, turn the pages slowly and look at each face.
Most of them are images of young people, some recent, some decades old. Some are of people who gave their lives defending us, our country and our freedoms.
Some are of people who came home and lived long, happy lives and some survived their service but couldn’t leave it completely behind.
As has become a tradition, we have letters to veterans from area high school seniors. Please see Pages 4A, 6B and 7B.
