Class of 1944 Colonists graduated on D Day, June 7, and left directly for boot camp in San Diego before heading to the Pacific Theater.
The AHS Alumni Association is working diligently to honor the valiant men and women from Anaheim High School who perished while serving their country from WWI to the War on Terror. Thus far, the Anaheim High Fallen Heroes and Colonists Veterans Project has resulted in the identification of 59 Anaheim High Fallen Heroes who are listed here: Fallen Heros-2013 – NOV 11
Started in 2009, the Project is still undergoing and will ultimately produce a list on more than 1,000 Anaheim High veterans. Biographies and photos of several Anaheim High’s Fallen Heroes and Colonist Veterans are available by visiting the “Wall of Valor” on this website.
To submit a name, please fill out the AHSAA Military Form and email back to anaheimalumni@yahoo.com or mail to AHSAA, P.O. Box 389, Anaheim, 92815.
As time permits, each Fallen Colonist will have his or her story published on the AHSAA website to ensure that our Anaheim High veterans, who served in the Pacific, Atlantic and all parts of the world in all branches of the military, will never be forgotten.
