The 7th Annual Veteran;s Day Celebration honors all veterans in Calhoun, said CCCOA Director Mike Ritchie, with "gratitude for their service to this country."

The Grantsville senior center was filled with veterans from WW II to Iraqi Freedom, all receiving honorary certificates.

Navy veteran Robert (Bob) Yoak was the special speaker.

The American Legion Post #21 of Roane County presented the colors, and Von Yoak sang the National Anthem.

The Red Hat Society served a buffet dinner to the veterans and their family members.

Who are these people-
These doer of deeds,
These Dreamers of dreams
Who make us believe?
