A teacher remembers.

HeroStories
My name is Yolanda Jimenez and I am from Sacramento California. I teach eighth grade English at a low income school. I wear a HeroBracelet with the name Pvt Jason Deibler on it. I have owned two bracelets with his name on them because my three year old took the first one and has it hidden with all of her treasures. Many students have asked why I wear the bracelet and I have told them that it is a reminder that men and women have died for our country. Adults see it and ask if I support the war or if I am against the war and I tell them that I support the soldiers and the families waiting back home for them.
