Many attend Veterans Recognition Day at Lakeland High School

Lakeland High School choir and band teacher Mark Sescilla was so moved by his love for America, he wrote a song about it: "That's My Flag." "I'm not a veteran," Sescilla said. "My dad is a veteran, all my three brothers are veterans, half my uncles were veterans. I never went that path, my career took me a different way but I have a great appreciation and I just want to say thank you to you veterans out there that allow the rest of us to do what we want to do and have the freedom to do it."
