In Library class, 6th graders listened to the story America's White Table. This story explains the Veterans Day tradition of setting a table to honor the men and women who served in America's Armed Forces who did not come home, including the MIAs and POWs. Each item at the place setting symbolizes something, including the salt representing the tears of families waiting for loved ones to return. They set their own White Table, and also had the opportunity to see some of the medals my father-in-law earned as an Army Sergeant in World War II.
