Third graders had the opportunity to talk to a soldier who had just returned home from Afghanistan on Friday, Sept. 20th. Dane Loomis, the husband of Ms. Wiehe, talked to the third graders about his time in the country. He brought pictures so the students could see firsthand what Afghanistan looks like. They even got to see some equipment such as tanks that soldiers ride around in! Mr. Dane was asked lots of great questions from the third graders and loved his time at Turner Elementary!
He returned from Afghanistan on Labor Day to his base in Belton, Mo. Some of you may have seen Ms. Wiehe on television greeting her husband when he returned!
