John Bradley Remembered


John Bradley Remembered With
Scholarship of Honor

Gone, but not forgotten. The memory of John Bradley and his devotion to community and country will live on with a special scholarship being established in his name at Appleton West High School.

The John Bradley Scholarship of Honor will pay tribute to this brave and courageous man who served his country as a Navy Corpsman medic in World War II. Bradley received the prestigious Navy Cross for his bravery in saving lives at Iwo Jima. He was also one of six service members who raised the American flag on Iwo Jima in that famous photo seen around the world.

This scholarship has been made possible by Ron and Colleen Weyers of the Weyers Family Foundation. Thank you Weyers!
