News Comment Week #13 – WWII Vet gets Diploma

Posted at 11:30 AM under Uncategorized

William Enoch Morgan proudly walked across the stage of Serrano High School in Phelan, California, to accept his high school diploma.

 

Morgan served in World War II and was among other veterans from the Korean War and the Vietnam War whom all received their high school diplomas, more than half a century later. He married his wife, Dorothy Evelyn, and immediately joined the Army to serve in World War II. He says its hard when you have to go to war like that, that it changes everything.

 

Not many people realize a lot of vets who served in WWII, Korean War, and Vietnam War had to just stop what they’re doing and go to war. Risk relationships with loved ones, friends, and their education. They sacrificed a lot more then just their lives on the battlefields.

    Sounds like a feature. At one time your last graf might have been true, but it’s hard to imagine anyone these days not knowing the costs of military service. We’re reminded of it every day.

    What did you think of the lead?
