Forty men and women who served in the military, and their spouses, attended the breakfast which was paid for by an anonymous donor.

Keith Harman, immediate past national commander of the VFW, spoke at Ohio Northern Veterans Day ceremonies on Monday morning. The ONU Veterans Day ceremonies marked not only the annual day set aside to honor and memorialize service men and women past and present but also marked the 100th anniversary of the World War I armistice.
Harman said it was appropriate that the occasion was held near the statue of Dr. Henry Solomon Lehr, the founder of the university and a Civil War veteran. He noted that seven percent of the U.S. population has served in the military, protecting our safety, security, and wellbeing.
