Today I shot a “Bring a veteran to school” day at Creekland Middle School in Lawrenceville.  I decided to tone these up in black and white for the blog even though I did color for the paper because I think they look better this way.

Heather Contiho looks at old Iraqi currency with Saddam Hussein’s image emblazened on it.  Lt. Col. Jim Henderson, now with the FBI, brought the money to show the school children after giving a speech about his time serving in the U.S. Air Force.

Lt. Col. Jim Henderson wore his B.D.U. to the school so the kids could see it.

Bradley Morse, an 8th grade student at Creekland Middle School, watches Jim Henderson give his speach about the armed services.

Steve Deitz listens to a question from Nikita Gupta during his speach to John Iverson’s 8th grade social studies class at Creekland Middle.
