In Recognition Of Those Who Have Graduated From Wilson Memorial High School And Are Now Serving With Uncle Sam It seems fitting that in this 1951 Hornet’s Nest, we the members of the start’ should give special recognition to those young men and women who have gradu¬ ated from Wilson Memorial High School Since its founding in September 1947 and who are now serving their country in some branch of the Armed Forces. We feel these young men and women have been called upon to sacrifice mucn in their early life but because they have learned well the principles which we as a democracy hold dear do not feel anything they sacrifice too much. This high school was made possible only a few years ago as a result of World War 11. Along these corridors and in these classrooms recuperated boys who had been wounded on the battlegrounds and these buildings previously used as a hospital were turned over to Augusta County and the State of Virginia to be used as an educational center. Thus was born Wilson Memorial High School, one of the good things coming out of a barbarious cruel war. Now we are again in the midst of even more troublesome times and our young men and women have been called upon to help bring peace out of chaos to the world. To these graduates who are now serving in their country’s forces we are wishing the best of luck and we would like to say, “Well done. We are proud of you.” Lester G.
