Dozens of Armed Forces veterans enjoyed a pre-Veterans Day lunch put on by the Bear River Lionesses at the Higgins Lions Community Center near Lake of the Pines last Saturday. Sue Hall, one of the event’s organizers, is shown with three World War II vets: Bill Rowe (U.S. Army Air Corps), left, Mark Osweiler (U.S. Army and former POW); and Dick Bowen (U.S. Navy medical corpsman assigned to 5th Marine Division).
