East High sets dedication of Vietnam War memorial
East High School plans to dedicate a memorial next week to graduates who died in the Vietnam War.
The school’s junior ROTC has researched its archives and developed a list of names, but friends and family members aware of any who were omitted should contact the school.
The list currently includes David L. Blunn, Daniel J. Clevenger, Robert W. Ellsworth, Allen D. Ford, Ronald C. Katz, Patrick A. Lucero, Juan P. Martinez, Pete M. Martinez, Joe L. Mascarenes, Miguel E. Naranjo Jr., Michael P. Tomsic and Leslie W. Williams.
An assembly is scheduled at 10:20 a.m. on Nov. 10 in the school's auditorium at which time a marble memorial will be unveiled.
If family members of the fallen graduates would like to be present, there will be a special seating area for them.
Anyone who would like to add names to the list may call the East High School JROTC office at 549-7237 or Principal Alan Nelms at 549-7220
