World War II Vets Continue to Intrigue Us!
April 4, 2011
Residing within our community are many veterans who have valiantly served our country in every war as far back as WW II. Recently, Mr. Donald Koons, a Loyalsock resident and WWI veteran with the Eighth U.S. Air Force, set up a display in the high school lobby chronicling his experiences during WW II. Stationed out of England, Mr. Koons and crew flew 35 bombing missions over Germany, Africa, and other parts of Europe before returning home. Mr. Koons is still very active in the community along with his wife, Roberta. If you have a moment when visiting the high school, we encourage you to view the display. We are proud of our heritage of people serving our country and really appreciate Mr. Koon's ability to share his memorabilia with us!
