A history lesson not found in textbooks came to fourth- and fifth-graders at on Veterans Day. World War I items, including a military jeep, replicas of ships, vehicles and equipment used in war time to present day, were shared by Ray Gonzalez, Woody Bowman and Paul Downey—all members of the Marine Corps League Detachment 1049.
