Mike you are almost right about the money but it's not federal money they're worried about it is state money - the state requires a minimum number of hours - that number is 1032 for elementary students - but I do agree with you- why not just tell the truth and say "In order to meet state educational guidelines we'll have to adjust our calendar" - why the need to put a "spin" on everything I just don't get it
A great friend who always had the time to answer my endless questions about his experiences at Midway and Guadalcanal. With Bill's passing, the VMF-221 survivors at Midway have all flown their final patrol. A sad time indeed.
God Bless you Bill....It was my honor and privilege to be your friend.
