KSU honors veterans during Tuesday ceremony

FRANKFORT, Ky. (WKYT) - Kentucky State University honored America’s veterans Tuesday.

The Veterans Day Assembly honored the legacies of three service members: KSU alum and World War II Army officer Anna Mac Clark, U.S. Navy master diver Carl Brashear, and Charles Young, a U.S. Army officer born in Kentucky.

Retired U.S. Army Maj. Dwayne Edwards, the program’s keynote speaker, said Veterans Day is a reminder for everyone to honor the sacrifice of our service members and find a way to serve their communities.

“They have an obligation to serve not in uniform just to give their community, their state, to help people, their neighbor and to be there for each other; that’s what I want people to really learn,” Edwards said.
