MARKING MEMORIAL DAY
Class of ‘61 holds 61st reunion
Guest speaker Steve Nash addresses attendees at a Memorial Day service in Oak Ridge Town Park on May 30 that was sponsored by Oak Ridge’s Special Events Committee. Nash joined the US Navy in 1956, became a Navy SEAL, and did four tours in Vietnam, one tour in Iran and one tour in Afghanistan before retiring from the Navy in January 1982. He told those attending the service that he personally knew over 40 Navy SEALS who were killed in Vietnam, and then shared some touching, personal insights about each one of them. Scouts from Scouts BSA Troop 219G and Troop 600B stand at attention during the presentation of the colors at the Memorial Day Service in Oak Ridge Town Park on May 30.
