Woodward Academy Veterans Day Memorial Program
Lee was honored to share the Leading with Honor message at the 2017 Woodward Academy Veterans Day Memorial Program in the Atlanta area recently.
Dr Stuart Gulley, President of Woodward Academy, shared these kind words after the presentation – “It was our great honor to have Col. Lee Ellis on our campus as the keynote speaker for our annual Veterans Day Program. Not only was Col. Ellis an engaging speaker, but–as a former POW–his story was compelling on many levels for our community, and resonated with our students as well as our veterans, alumni, faculty, and staff in attendance.”
