Riverdale student accompanies Vietnam veteran on Tennessee Honor Flight

On the morning of September 17th, Cadet Lieutenant Colonel Michael R. Campbell had the distinct privilege to participate in the Middle Tennessee’s Honor flight to Washington, DC and serve as the guardian to Mr. Jack Spratt (Vietnam, Navy Veteran). 

 

Mr. Spratt spent 30 years serving and fighting for our country. Cadet Campbell said, “Getting to meet and spend the day with Mr. Spratt was truly an amazing experience as he loved to talk and share many of his stories.”  

 

These special moments allowed Cadet Campbell to gain a better understanding and appreciation of the Washington War Memorials and what they mean to Mr. Spratt.

 

“I was more than willing to listen to him all day," Campbell said. "I’m very thankful for the time I spent with Mr. Spratt."
