VETERANS DAY
For Veterans Day, Williams Elementary School, Williams WINS, and the Williams community at-large want to express profound gratitude for ALL those who have served in all branches of the military.
Your service, courage, and dedication to protecting the freedoms of this country and its citizens are appreciated beyond measure.
​
We hope to grow this list of acknowledgement over the years. To add a veteran, please send details about his or her service to WilliamsWINSCommunity@gmail.com, including full name, military branch, unit, and years served (19XX-19XX).
