In honor of the upcoming holiday on Monday (Veteran's Day), the
RHS JROTC, band and chorus presented a patriotic program to the
student body, special guests from various veteran organizations in
the area, parents, and the 8th graders from Rossview Middle School.
The buglers sounded "attention" and the Honor Guard posted the
Colors, while the choir sang the National Anthem. The entire body
recited the Pledge of Allegiance, and then School Board member David
Cook sang the Lee Greenwood favorite, "God Bless the USA". Retired
Col. John Mogan, Commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Veteran
Affairs was the guest speaker. Then members of the forensic speech
team read aloud authentic letters from the various fronts to which US
troops have been deployed, as JROTC members re-enacted each scene.
The Colors were retired as "Taps" was played. Following are photos of
the event:
