St. Joseph High School Class of 1961 - Vikings of '61 Who Served in Our Military
Pictures in Gallery: 58
Our guys graduated just in time to face the conflict in Viet Nam.  Many of them accepted the call and served proudly.  The photos below are of those who have told us about their service.  Sometimes they added stories that are worth our while to read.  If you know about any classmates who served in the military, especially if you have a photo to share, please let us know.  We'd love to post any photos here.  Service photos (check out Bill Banach, Frank Sodnicar, or Roger Sustar, for example) are especially appreciated.
