The two things that ruled our lives in the 1960's were
the Vietnam War and Racial unrest. 

Today, we are still learning how to handle racial inequality.  Many things have changed in our society since those emotionally charged days in the 1960's.   Things will continue to change and hopefully someday we can all live together peacefully. 

After high school, many of our classmates went on to serve this great country we call home.  Here are a few pictures of how they helped keep us safe!  If you have pictures and information on our veterans, please send them to info@lhs60to70.com

Some veterans are guests or spouses of our classmates who have attended the reunion and we wish to honor them also.
