Old Bridge High School is still seeking military alumni – active duty or reservists – nominations for a Military Wall of Honor dedicated to Old Bridge High School students who joined the armed forces after graduation, which is expected to be established this year.

The wall aims to shine a light on the importance of veterans within the Old Bridge community and to commemorate graduates who have given their lives to honor their country. History teacher Guy Lassen came up with the idea of establishing a Military Wall of Honor at Old Bridge after visiting his daughter’s high school, which had a wall dedicated to veteran alumni.

Residents are urged to assist with the project by spreading the word of the proposed military wall. The high school is looking for graduates from 1995 through the present, who are currently in the military or are former military in good standing.
