The Solano Office of Education has announced that families can apply for their veteran, living or deceased, to receive a retroactive high school diploma.

The program is called Operation Recognition.

Individuals who were unable to receive their high school diplomas and who served in World War II, the Korean War or the Vietnam War and were honorably discharged from military service can apply.

Japanese-American citizens who left high school due to internment in the World War II relocation camps are also eligible.
