To our classmates and others who served in our armed forces, thank you for your service and sacrifice. Last year, there were many replies to the message of November 12, 2012. About 50 members of MHS classes 1963 - 1966 were saluted. I encourage you to read that thread of acknowledgements and reflections of our classmates who served.
PS - Here is address of an article in today's Roanoke Times about Shelton Scales ,USMC retired, and father of our classmate Joe Scales. He recounts leading a battalion in the assault on Iwo Jima. Web address: http://www.roanoke.com/news/2355401-12/henry-county-veteran-haunted-by-iwo-jima.html |

| Wes, what a wonderful and informative article. It's amazing that you live in a small town for so many years without knowing that heroes lived among us. Thanks so much for sharing...Joe and his family must be very proud. Hope you are doing well. |
