The Interlochen Center for the Arts marked Veterans Day with a special tribute.
Student trumpeters began playing taps across Interlochen’s campus at 11 a.m. exactly. It’s a tribute to veterans that began more than 10 years ago.
Brian McCall, a history teacher at the Interlochen Arts Academy, organizes the remembrance.
“One of the things I thought was really important is to try to bring the military experience and the people who have been involved in the military to our community here at Interlochen," McCall says. "So there was less disconnect and more understanding between the two sides.”
This is the 100th anniversary of the beginning of World War I. Students wore red poppies to honor those who died during the conflict that was once called 'the war to end all wars.'
