On December 3rd, 2025, the Redding chapter of the Korean War Veterans Association visited the children at St. Joseph Catholic School in Redding, CA, to deliver brand-new dictionaries to the third-grade class. Their visit brought smiles, gratitude, and a renewed focus on the importance of literacy in young learners’ lives. In addition to the dictionaries, every student from kindergarten through eighth grade received a United States flag generously provided by the American Legion—adding a special patriotic touch to the day.
