Today, March 25, Wakulla County Schools joined communities across the nation in recognizing Medal of Honor Day—a day established by Congress to honor the courage, sacrifice, and service of those who have gone above and beyond the call of duty.
The Medal of Honor is our nation’s highest military distinction, awarded to individuals who demonstrate extraordinary valor at the risk of their own lives.
In honor of this day, students at Wakulla Institute had the opportunity to hear from
Thomas Dunaway, a United States Marine Corps veteran and Honor Flight photographer, who shared firsthand experiences of service and the importance of remembering those who have served our country.
Honor Flight is a national nonprofit program that transports America’s veterans to Washington, D.C. to visit the memorials dedicated to their service and sacrifice.
These moments bring history to life for our students and reinforce the importance of civic understanding—ensuring that the legacy of our nation’s heroes continues to be honored by the next generation.
Thank you to Veteran Thomas Dunaway for your service and for sharing your experiences with our students!
