Eighty-two years ago, Ray Svejnoha was attending high school in Illinois. World War II came and he had a choice to make, join the armed forces, or enjoy senior prom. He chose to serve his country. Now he is 100 years old and some students at the high school decided to dedicate their prom to him. They provided him with a haircut, a manicure, and a tuxedo. He was met by students with cheers who welcomed him to his party. We have our freedoms today because people like Ray made a great choice. I am also glad that there are high school students who 82 years later honor a 100-year-old man in such a nice way. Who are you willing to honor today who missed something important to them because they were doing something more important?
