Mason Garcia (r) and Chris Johnson placed a cross and flag on the grave of veteran Zachery Zink Jr. in the Starbuck Cemetery last Thursday. "It's one of the best things we've ever done at our school," Garcia said. Johnson agreed. "We go on a lot of field trips, but this is probably the best one. I really respect veterans' service," said Johnson who wants to be in the Navy when he grows up.
