Just before 7 this morning, 17 veterans of World War II gathered at Bedford County Courthouse to leave on a weekend bus trip to see the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C. Because the memorial opened in 2004, many of the men and women whose service it honors have never had the chance to see it. In Shelbyville, Shelbyville Rotary Club took the lead in coordinating and raising funds for the trip.
