Rockefeller Honors Veterans Through Historic "Take a Veteran to School Day"

Senator Jay Rockefeller today joined with Randy Pleva, a West Virginia veteran and national president of Paralyzed Veterans of America, for an historic event - "Take a Veteran to School Day" - to mark Veterans Day and honor the state's 178,000 veterans.

"West Virginians have proudly and in great numbers served, and continue to serve, in our nation's Armed Forces," Rockefeller said. "We're so proud of these men and women who represent the very best of our Mountain State. And that's why it's so important to connect our veterans with West Virginia's young people - so they know the pivotal role veterans have played in the history and security of our state, our country, and the world."
