In 1945, World War II Veteran Ed Kinslow missed his high school graduation because he was busy flying for the Air Force. At age 94, he is finally getting the chance to walk across the stage on graduation day.
Kinslow said many of his classmates at the all-boys Roman Catholic High School in Philadelphia also missed the graduation ceremony because they were serving in World War II. When he walks across the stage on Friday, Kinslow will represent his peers who did not return from fighting overseas.
