Applications are being accepted for the annual graduation ceremony to award diplomas to San Bernardino County men and women whose high school education was interrupted due to military service or internment in a Japanese American camp. The deadline to apply for the 10th annual Operation Recognition Veterans Diploma Project is September 7. The diplomas will be awarded at a presentation in November. There is no cost to apply or receive the high school diploma. Veterans who served in and received an honorable discharge from World War II, the Korean War or the Vietnam War, or individuals who were interned in a Japanese American relocation camp—and are San Bernardino County residents—are eligible to participate.
