Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley
Waitsburg High School hosted an assembly honoring Veterans Friday. Associated Student Body leadership shared background information about the holiday which originated as "Armistice Day" on Nov. 11 1919 as the first anniversary of the end of World War I. In 1926, Congress passed a resolution for an annual observance beginning in 1938.
This year, the American Legion was recognized for its outstanding service to the community.
