On Wednesday, Nov. 10, NCHS played host to the Veterans Day Assembly. The assembly was conducted in honor of the 60th anniversary of the Korean War and the 235th anniversary of the Marine Corps. The Korean War earned the title “the Forgotten War” due to its unpopularity during the 1950’s. However, America’s participation in the Korean War helped South Korea become the prosperous, thriving nation that it is today. “I don’t want it to be the Forgotten War. I want students to remember the sacrifices many Americans made,” Principal Tony Pavia said.
