Veterans photos needed
Wa-Hi JROTC cadets seeking veteran photos
Calling all VETERANS! The Walla Walla High School Junior ROTC cadets are looking for you, and your photos.
"We want to reach out to all veterans in our community," said cadet Lt. Col. Zach Chlipala, Blue Devil cadet battalion commander. "We hope they and their families will attend our annual Veterans Day assembly on Friday morning, Nov. 8. This year we're trying to expand the way we recognize and honor our veterans. We'd love to get photos from area veterans to use in our video that will run during the ceremonies."
The Jr. Reserve Officer Training Corps cadets, along with the ASB staff are already hard at work organizing the event to honor those who have served in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and Coast Guard, whether active, reserve, national guard or retired, according to the Senior Army Instructor at Wa-Hi.
"Our cadets this year are working hard to gather photos of veterans, any photo would be a great start, but we're hoping to get 'then and now' images of every veteran, back when they were in the service and another more recent photo, too. We can accept images by email, or hard copy prints that we can scan and return immediately to the veterans or their families," said Lt. Col. Bill Bialozor, WWHS JROTC SAI.
Further information for attendees and veterans intending to participate will be announced closer to the event. For more information about submitting photos, call the Senior Army Instructor at 509-527-3035 or email wwhs_rotc@wwps.org.
