Pelham high school issues honorary diploma to World War II veteran | lohud.com | The Journal News
PELHAM - A World War II veteran who dropped out of Pelham Memorial High School during the war received an honorary diploma yesterday. White Plains resident Frank "Stanley" Jones, 81, attended the school's annual holiday concert and got his diploma from the school's president, Jeannine Clark. "Many students left school to join the armed services," Clark told the hundreds of students in the audience, noting the sacrifices made by young men who defended the nation. Jones left school early to join the Army in March 1941 and did not return to high school. During World War II, 1,650 Pelham residents served in the armed forces and 65 died, said Kenneth G. Kraetzer, a 1975 Pelham graduate and a member of American Legion Post 50 in Pelham. After the war, Jones attended culinary school and became an executive chef at Trans World Airlines, where he met and prepared a meal for Pope John Paul II when the pope flew on the airline for his 1979 visit to New York City. Jones said he was surprised by the school's offer to give him his diploma, which he didn't pursue after his discharge in July 1946. "You come back, you don't want to start all over," Jones said of his reason for not finishing his high school education. "I had to go look for a job." Kraetzer said the American Legion has a national initiative this year for veterans to get their high school diplomas. In addition to his diploma, Jones received an invitation to the class of 2008's senior prom. Jones wouldn't say whether he would attend. Reach Ernie Garcia at elgarcia@lohud.com or 914-696-8290.
