The Class of 2022 was in for a surprise when they celebrated their graduation at the Springdale School District. In addition to honoring the recent graduates, the event paid respect to four exceptional veterans who, had they not decided to serve in the military, would have graduated in 1956. Known by their endearing nickname, “super seniors,” Carl Stults, Bobby Burke, Charles Leroy Moon, and Bob Self were among the veterans who received honorary diplomas with the graduating seniors.
These four young guys were all seniors in high school in 1956, yet none of them graduated from Springdale High School. Carl Self revealed, “Springdale didn’t recognize the GED at the time, but I took a test when I joined the Air Force. I eventually graduated from Little Rock Central with a diploma. It wasn’t until they got together for lunch one day that the school district learned about their missing diplomas.
The Class of 2022 was delighted to learn that these “super seniors” will be participating in the graduation ceremony. It was a lesson in sacrifice and honor as much as a celebration of their accomplishment. Jared Cleveland, the superintendent of Springdale, delivered sentimental letters honoring the heroes’ bravery and devotion from U.S. Representative Steve Womack and Governor Asa Hutchinson during the ceremony.
They served both during and after the Korean War, according to Womack. They weren’t thinking about themselves or asking themselves, “What about me?” at the time. They performed their duty. Isn’t that the authentic essence of America? The instructors paused to recognize the outstanding accomplishments that each veteran has made since enlisting in the Air Force in 1956.
These four extraordinary guys finally earned their long-awaited diplomas from their alma mater, after 66 years. It was a just reward for all of their hard work. “Once a Bulldog, Always a Bulldog,” as the saying goes.
Greetings on your honorary diplomas, Bob Self, Charles Leroy Moon, Bobby Burke, and Carl Stults! Their devoted dedication to our nation is incredibly admirable. We are fortunate to live in the wonderful country we do today because of courageous people like them. By sharing this story and expressing our gratitude, let’s honor these men for their incredible achievements and selflessness.
Tom Cruise Deemed Unrecognizable in New Pics With Prince William, as Some Say He Had “Too Much Surgery”
On Wednesday night, Tom Cruise was a VIP guest at a London charity gala, where he joined Prince William. And though the night was filled with glitz and glamour due to all the major personalities in attendance, all eyes were on the 61-year-old star because of his noticeably changing face.
During his most recent public appearance, the movie star showcased longer, flowing locks as he smiled for photographs alongside the Prince of Wales. As soon as the photos from the evening were shared by the media, the internet was flooded with comments regarding Cruise’s ’’unrecognizable’’ appearance.
Many fans were quick to praise the star and come to his defense. One person wrote, ’’He still looks better than 80% of men his age,’’ while another commented, ’’Do any of us look the same after 40 years? I sure don’t.’’
While many believe that the actor is aging gracefully, others speculate that he has undergone surgeries and fillers, attributing them to his current appearance. One person noted, “Too much surgery, fillers, Botox, hair transplant, etc…not a good look.” Another person gave their opinion, saying, ’’Another star with far too many fillers.’’
We believe that the Mission Impossible actor looked incredibly handsome and every inch the elegant movie star we’ve known him to be. Zac Efron is another Hollywood leading man whose appearance has recently gone viral as some deemed him unrecognizable.
