Veterans visit Eden Hall Upper Elementary students to discuss life in the military

Veteran Rob Wilig gets fired up as he speaks to fourth and fifth graders at Eden Hall Upper Elementary School about serving in the military on Nov. 10. He taught them about the significance of patches on uniforms and showed them where he was stationed in the Army. He served 21 years.

Teacher Tina Beam shared a picture of her great aunt, Hazel Brown Wilson, who enlisted as a telephone operator in World War II to help with communications, after her brother, Dale Brown, and his squadron were shot down. The sister and brother were later reunited at the end of the war in France.
