Students in US History II Honors had the opportunity to speak to Tom Mellor, son of Don Mellor, a World War II veteran, who passed away this past June. Students were enthralled by his stories of the Pacific Theater and important life lessons. They also had the opportunity to read a primary source, his father‘s journal, before Tom came to speak to the class. Students had poignant questions regarding different elements of the journal. Tom Mellor was very impressed with the students here at Scituate!
