A Dose of Inspiration from a Versailles 8th Grader at the Vietnam Memorial in DC

The following was posted on DarkeJournal's Facebook page. Such a great gesture by one of our youth..

Versailles 8th graders were in Washington DC recently. While visiting the Vietnam Memorial a veteran and his wife discovered his friend's name was at the top and they could not get an image. Alexa Didier a Versailles 8th grader said if people lifted her up she would get it. That's her in the orange. People gathered in amazement snapping photos holding back tears. Folks there are young people who do care and I'm proud to say they live in my town.
